UPDATE: the CDC have said that approximately 6% of COVID-19 deaths have been from the virus alone, with not one reported comorbidity - as of December 8, the U.S. has had 282,000 deaths from that virus - 6% of 282,000 = 16,920 - this is equivalent to just over 5 1/2 September 11s. And I'm just talking one country here. I'm going to research how many of these deaths were under 65 years of age (even though I wouldn't have wanted the terrorists to kill 2,977 senior citizens on 9/11 either).
