I wish all these Virus Truthers would volunteer at a Brooklyn hospital this weekend
I guess this needs to be stated for Fox News Virus Trithers: if, in theory, the US had locked down last year for the flu **a lot fewer people would have died from flu last yest**
ie it’s idiotic to compare flu deaths, where the country does basically nothing to curtail the spread vs. the covid-19 deaths, where country has taken unprecedented actions
and there’s a flu vaccine!
