Thanks for writing this article! The media coverage for covid is so nauseating, all these numbers in the headlines, with no context, you'd think they're covering a sport event... What a shame.
What annoys me is there's no frame of reference for what the figures mean. There's the bubonic plague as a reference, but no way of knowing if Covid will match the figures gathered in the black death[0]
