<<1.5 deaths in 100k over 7 days, would be 10 times the homicide rate in the US.>> You are correct on that for the homicide deaths for 2019, the latest figures available. Thank you for checking into the numbers. I believe it's important to make sure we understand what is being depicted on the Y axis on those charts. but no , I don't think homicides are a good comparison. I checked the numbers again using this as a source. COVID Live Update: 209,016,078 Cases and 4,389,020 Deaths from the Coronavirus - Worldometer (worldometers.info) The Corona virus has been seasonal to date, not sure what is happening right now. but we have had a warning from Bill Gates that the "next version will change peoples minds". How he knows that is a mystery to me. I looked at the total deaths and divided by the population and then by 1.7 (since Jan 2020) to get the following. So for the last 1.7 years we have had a Corona Virus related death rate in the USA of 113 deaths per 100k per year in the UK and 112 per 100k per year in the USA. I am going to compare that to historical outbreaks of influenza, which I do believe is a useful measuring stick. This is for the USA. Trends in Recorded Influenza Mortality: United States, 1900–2004 (nih.gov) Now given the additional fact that we know the Covid rates have been artificially boosted, certainly in past months, and there is one hell of a lot of financial and political interests mixed up on this, I say why the hoopla? I am over sixty. There was not any hoopla over Hong Kong flu in 1969 and 1970. Nobody was given a day off work, and nobody wore a mask. I have to wonder what the BS is all about? Especially the Bill Gates prediction about the "next version". The Covid Corona Virus program looks criminal, deliberate and concocted to me. Both the infection and the "vaccine". I don't trust criminals.
