This is deaths per capita. The US is 11th in the world on deaths per capita; to be clear, a supposedly advanced country with supposedly advance medicine should be near the bottom of the list, not near the top.

The fatality rate is not measured against total population, though - because not all of the population have yet had the virus. Against the 12 million people who have actually had COVID, the fatality rate is a little bit over 2%.

Now, that's OK - that's actually better than it was in August when we were pushing 3 or 4 percent because we were being so irresponsible. BUT. That's 316 million people who haven't yet been exposed to it. Which means we're talking about the lives of about 6 million people. 6 million people could die if we don't contain this virus.

And what happens if 6 million people all get sick at the same time? What happens if some of those 6 million people are themselves doctors and nurses? Absolute catastrophe. In the United Kingdom, the fatality rate hit 15% - on a virus that should be about 2% fatality.

TL;DR: No, we absolutely cannot move on.

If they didn't die from the kung flu this year most of them would've been taken out by the regular flu. And then the new world order would need a different excuse to enact tyrannical government policies.

I don't have access to alternate timelines if that's what your asking for. But I do have common sense and an open mind.

No, but you do have access to historical medical data.

In the last 10 years, the average number of fatalities attributed to flu is anywhere between 12,000 a year to 61,000 a year.

The highest was 2018, with 61,000 deaths estimated.

https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/2017-2018.htm

You can compare it to the other years and see for yourself.

We're finishing the year with over 250,000 confirmed dead. That is a startling increase of 410%. And that's not even the estimated total which will likely be higher.

So, this is not the flu.

Never was.

This is still prefaced on "hey something bad happened, let's blame it on a Republican". Trump could do literally everything possible to wipe out the disease, making the total 250 deaths instead of 250,000 and you would still blame him for that 250.

In 2021 when Biden is in office the kung flu death toll for 2021 could be 2.5 million and you would say "he's doing everything he can!" because you have it in your head that Trump is inconceivably evil monster and some how a bumbling nit wit at the same time.

No, not really.

No one is blaming Trump for it happening but there are certainly people with the opinion that Trump could've done more. Whether or not that was reasonable is an entirely different argument from you original statement which was:

"If they didn't die from the kung flu this year most of them would've been taken out by the regular flu."

Which appears to imply that 250,000 Americans dead from flu is normal.

The number is only a problem in relation to people, like Trump, who continue to call this a seasonal flu. It isn't. The problem is Trump wishes to treat it like the flu by not treating it like a national emergency, which most countries could afford to do. Instead, he relinquished his role as a leader and split it between Pence and his COVID taskforce and the governors. And he continues to berate governors, especially Democratic ones, for lockdown procedures.

Another problem with Trump is not only is he refusing to concede the election, but he is preventing the proper information from being released to the transition team that would allow Biden to jump on the COVID situation with his boots on the ground. Instead, it may take months for him to catch up on all the information the Trump administration is ignoring and refusing to send out.

Supposedly, that information may hit Biden's desk before December but, I guess we'll have to wait and see.

At this point, it's also irrelevant whether or not Trump is responsible for the 250,000 deaths as he will no longer be President.

The people have spoken, and their opinion is, apparently, that he just didn't cut it despite any advantage there was in having him in office.

So, no. We will not be moving on until the people who are still dragging their feet on this pandemic start to realize this is a serious situation and it's going to take all of us to come together to fight this pandemic.

Our pride, and our inability to adapt in the face of a crisis is the true monster. Donald Trump and those who refuse to take this seriously, just feed that monster.

thanks to trump, he closed down early (at 3 cases). liberals called him xenophobic for closing the us from china, I call him our hero. About 11 million people have got Covid-19 in the US and only 250,000 have died, this is about 0.03% death rate, which in perspective the flu has a 1% death rate, way higher than covid. the difference between the flu and covid is that the flu has a vaccine and covid does not.

No. Read this very carefully because you are doing this wrong.

Imagine for just a second that the disease is 100% fatal - everyone who catches it dies. So the way you're doing it, that's 11 million divided by 11 million. Do you get 100%?

No. Your calculator says 1. And does that sound right to you? A disease that's 1% fatal kills 11 million people out of 11 million?

You HAVE to multiply by 100 if you want to talk percentages. You divide the two numbers AND THEN TIMES BY 100. "per cent" means "out of a hundred".

You HAVE to understand the basics if you want to talk in depth about how this works on a medical scale.

Your numbers are total estimates because you have no idea how many people have actually had it. The number is likely much higher than what you are reporting.

The US IS NOT and never have been known for having an advanced medicine. US has always been mediocre at best, BUT guess who is SUPER advanced?!! Yes CUBA is, best medical schools in the world. People from all over go to study at Cuba's medical schools. You argument's base is invalid. YOU are completely ignoring the fact presented in this article by comparing apples to oranges...we are talking about CODVID death ratios in the US, not world wide deaths per capita...WTF?! You are also ignoring the fact that healty people under 50 have a 99% chance to survive.. even Trump only had it for what 3 days? LOL Trump proved CODVID was a joke! Mate you are just scared. Look how about we only quarantine those people over 80 and those with cancer or other terminal illness that are high risk and let the world be happy, catch it, get over it, and get back to work after the 5 days it took them to recover. How about you also move to Cuba if you like the super advanced medicine.

Or we could just ignore you entirely and save the 6 million lives.

I am sure ignoring me will have no effect on 2 or 3 people's lives even less 6 million people, not sure where you get your numbers from. Good way to end the argument. Hope you feel better now giving yourself the illusion you won it. Believe!
