Google for 'gun violence epidemic' and you will find lots of high profile results pretending it is.

I mean it is, it’s not a contagious pathogen.

Unless you think it’s normal that American society has more mass shootings than I can keep track of in recent memory then i’d call it an epidemic.

People walking into churches, schools, concerts, etc… and indiscriminately killing people is a deep sickness in American society.

Sometimes I forget I need to explain humor or irony and I am not even the native English speaker. But I accept this as my fault.
