First off, if Birx or Fauci are talking, they are destroying. Their concern is political control, not disease control. Regardless of who they may be in their personal lives, they are functional sociopaths right now.
To my point: if we took random samples of the population at any time of any year, about 20% of Americans would test positive for one of the coronaviruses, or for antibodies. That is my understanding of experts best guesses. We have never pulled people off the street for random tests, so we are not completely sure.
In flu season, best guess is that at some point about 200 million of us would test positive first for the virus, then for antibodies. Only about a third of those people get sick though.
As people keep pointing out, it is the DEATHS and the HOSPITALIZATIONS that matter, not cases. We dont test random people for the flu. Why? BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT SICK.
Just under 3 million Americans die every year, or about 250,000 a MONTH. If we added 20,000 to that for six months and the media didn’t create a panic over it, would anyone not directly affected notice?
If you are not alternating between sick and furious, you have not yet grasped the full extrnt of the assault on the American people being perpetrated by many of the Governors in this country, with the tacit approval of courts and legislatures who are doing little or nothing to stop it.
