pretty odd that an old man such as yourself would take the pandemic so lightly

In contrast to the leadership and strategies used in countries like Vietnam and Thailand among others, our nation with no strategy is in free-fall with an all-time high of over 70,000 new infections just today, and probably 100,000 new cases per day soon, while we're still in wave I. 

 

The lagging death rate will accelerate in a few weeks, hopefully at a lower rate than earlier since dexamethasone, remdisimir and other treatments combined with more effective hospital protocol will marked lower the death rate. More time gives us better treatment and saves lives, but we don't have the luxury of time. The price paid is many thousands of long illness that may impact the future health of those infected and the needless loss of lives plus further devastation to our economy.

It seems normal to have 70,000 new cases with almost 1,000,000 of new tests every day.
Stop whining

You've discovered the key for wiping out cancer. Stop testing! "Curiouser and Curiouser!" cried Alice.

Each year, at least 1.7 million adults in America develop sepsis.

Nearly 270,000 Americans die as a result of sepsis.

1 in 3 patients who die in a hospital have sepsis.

Covid deaths are hitting 85% of population with age above 75 and with at least 2 other serius illness.

Do you understand?

Help me to understand.

 

You're saying that C-19 has caused almost as  many deaths in the U.S in six months as sepsis does in a year (a leading cause of death). Also, it has surpassed all other major causes of deaths, but it's still behind the number of deaths in a year for cancer and heart-disease.

 

Ergo -- NO BIGGIE -- because? The odds are high these people would someday get sepsis? They are likely to die in the next ten years anyway of other causes? Their lives have little value because, ya know, just old people? All of the above?

 

Of course even this *reasoning* requires that we ignore the 20% of deaths for C-19 among those who are under age 65. (80% of the death occurs for those over age 65).

 

And, also not worth mentioning are the long term health consequences among many who were infected and never needed hospitalization including some who were unaware they were even infected and claim no symptoms, yet X-rays reveal ground-glass opacities in their lungs that indicate damage and possible damage to kidneys, livers, and brains that are not yet revealed. 

 

Please, do help me to understand your non sequiturs.
