The numbers however don't lie. About 90% of the people that get Covid will experience mild to moderate symptoms. About 7.5 % will experience severe symptoms and may have long lasting effects and about 2.5% will die.

Having said that however I look at it this way If you were given a jar of 100 jelly beans was was told that 90 of them were fine, seven of them would make you very sick and three of them would kill you, would you eat any of the jelly beans?
Actually, that number does lie. Numerous studies have suggested a much higher rate of asymptomatic cases. Fauci himself said 40% of cases are asymptomatic.
