Give the benefit of the doubt. It’s certainly deadlier but still comparable in the scheme of things relative to a 30% death rate virus. I’m vaxxed and have a booster, mask up, and def not a denier but it’s true that the death rate of covid is fairly low for most folks.

The amount of apologizing and disclaiming in this thread is sad.

You shouldn't have to announce your medical history to compare fatality rates of a virus.

You’re right. People are triggered by the comparison.
