What don’t you understand about math?I'm not sure why it is so hard for you to grasp the simplest of points. If we had 10Million cases and only 10 people died from it, it is not a pandemic.
If cases rise by 400% but deaths only increase 3%...why the panic?
Look at the IFR data from June 1 alone. The death RATE is dropping. People may be getting it but fewer people are dying from it due to vaccines, natural immunity, better treatments and a weaker variant.

The infection rate is an absolute. It doesn't matter the # of cases, large or small. How many got it, how many died from it.
When you say + means cases are rising, you're saying until there isn't one more case of COVID on the planet, you're gonna be scared shitless and suggest we all be locked down. Hello....we KNOW this about you.
The virus is endemic. It's never leaving. We get it to the point it's like the flu, we move on. It's damn near about there.
If deaths begin to rise proportionally, then we all have a reason to be concerned.
And...we lose as many people in 10 days as we lost on 9/11...in...a...couple...hours? What an amazing stretch to glorify something. You take a catastrophic event that happened in hours then say it's just like what's happening...nationwide...to 331Million people...over...10...days. HOLY ******* ROFL.

You believe that someone who got COVID on July 1 may still be in the hospital after a month, from that infection 30 days ago? How many Flogged? Link??
You fancy yourself wise. We all know you are not. Were you aware...the average time it takes from the first symptoms of COVID-19 to death is 18.5 days.
People who have had COVID in the first two weeks of July, by and large...the vast majority...are recovered. Only a scant few %s of people who got the virus in the first week and likely the 2nd week of July are still battling it.
What don't you get about facts?
18.5 DAYS. That proves my point that you comparing the 7 day average deaths as a percent of the 7 day average new cases doesn’t make sense. Your numerator isn’t in your denominator. Another made up nonsensical statistic.
And no, people that die today of Covid, on average, were diagnosed on July 12-13 (31 minus 18.5), the SECOND WEEK OF JULY.
