Covid 19 may not be any WORSE than getting polio or so-called Spanish Flu, but it certainly isn't any better.

IMHO
, the number of deaths from any "normal" flu during the incubation season of Winter, (which would occur from Sept or Oct. through April or May) that's 8 months at most... would average out to around 40,000 deaths in the USA.

Since around January 2020 till now, (which is the middle of the flu season in the US, and it's been 5 months), there have been at LEAST 122,000 deaths. That's about 3 X more. To say that THIS flu is very virulent is an understatement!

Safety is in the MASK, my forum friends.
