Putting the current Covid death rate in perspective
With the current seven day average of Covid coded deaths in the US, and based on the CDC numbers, the chances of dying with Covid are about equal to your chances of dying from a stroke. You have a greater chance of dying in an accident than dying with Covid. And you are 4X more likely to die from cancer and 4.5X more likely to die from heart disease.

All of these have potentially serious effects on your health long term, that do not include death. Good idea to do what you can to prevent all of the above, including Covid.

COVID-19 cases and deaths are down but rate of infection is the same as it was in December for unvaccinated
COVID-19 cases and deaths are down but rate of infection is the same as it was in December for unvaccinated Sacramento-area doctor talks about COVID-19 infection rates among unvaccinated "The Post found that the rate among those unvaccinated is 73% higher than figures being publicized. Their analysis found that in states with high unvaccinated populations, the pandemic is ongoing at the same pace it was during the last surge." |

The actual number surrounding the COVID pandemic will not be "known" probably for decades. Scientists are still debating the numbers from the Spanish Flu. It is an easy thing to evaluate. There are many complicating factors, one of which is the cause of death determination, which many here repeatedly mention.
We can be fairly sure of how many people died with COVID. But even that number is not appearing to be significantly underreported. And then of course there are the long haulers - who we are just now learning about. One interesting unexpected side effect is two variants of the seasonal flu appear to be eliminated as a result of people wearing masks and social distancing. |

If that is what eliminated the Flu, why didn't it eliminate Covid?

"COVID-19 Common question Is the coronavirus more contagious than flu? While COVID-19 and flu viruses are thought to spread in similar ways, COVID-19 is more contagious among certain populations and age groups than flu. Also, COVID-19 has been observed to have more superspreading events than flu."

Ok, you are one of those who resist the vaccine. I don't care about your health if you don't. Get sick and die, get sick and recover, I really don't care. You have made your choice.

It's not a vaccine. It's "experimental " gene therapy that has killed hundreds and sickened thousands. All for what? A virus that 99% of people survive. Now who's crazy?

And Covid being more infectious? Possibly... But not enough to get those ridiculously low flu numbers...
