Personally i believe the high death toll % reported in the media 24/7 is a statistical anomaly that will be proved meaningless except to frighten and alarm the public. I mean we don't know, can't know presently, how many have already had 19 and got over it with minimal consequences. Since the deaths are in your face real-time, all those that caught it and got well and went on about their business are excluded from the death calculations.

Of course if it was you or one of your's that died then it's a tragedy without question. But still math is math.
As many have said and i agree fundamentally, either the powers that be know something about virus 19 that is being withheld from the public or there is something very, very, "rotten in Denmark". You just can't have it both ways.

Based on the response of the out of control main stream media AND the gobberment itself, shutting down the country and throwing untold TRILLIONS of dollars at it is not warranted by the known facts and is out of character with the response to other pandemics that were much worse--so far--than this virus.

PS somebody said the main difference with the media handling of the pandemic this time was that Trump is POTUS--i take no position on that but the way thangs are unfolding i do wonder?
