my 4 people with 1 test thing was me
musing about how off the stats are. if its as contagious as people say, im sure living in the same household with it becomes unavoidable to not contract it. espescially when you wait 3 days for results and have 0 symptoms. basically what i was saying is that 1 confirmed result number, could be 4. none of them are dead lol. he comes back to work monday.
now not everyone is a family of 4, but i think its safe to assume the case rate is much higher than is reported because of these scenarios, and i find it hard to believe that any covid deaths are slipping through the cracks unreported
so its even less lethal than reported basically. i don't think thats conspiracy nonsense or anything other than common sense, but again thats me.
that chart is a little dated since the covid figure it uses is 2200 deaths a day, but it helps put into perspective those numbers. it disgusts me when politicians use shit like "more people died today of covid than died in 9/11" type figures. people die. its unavoidable. whether its from covid, the flu, a bus hits you, your heart explodes, blah blah. at a certain point we need to accept that covid exists and isn't going away, we can personally take what precautions we feel we need to, to avoid it. but this governmental overreach is terrifying to me, far more than the virus itself
thats just me tho. we're what 10 months into this now? 9 months? countless livelihoods destroyed, businesses that will never come back, and the worst part of all of it is the precedent has been set for future use of locking down.
i don't like it
