What's this?

Respectfully disagree

Covid kills. The death rate from Covid is what it is.

The reaction that was taken by government leaders has impacts. Some direct some indirect.

Did they act correctly? Overreact?under react? Whatever....have your fun with that. Blame them. Disagree with them. Criticize them. Have at it. You can weigh those decisions against the costs their attempts cost for sure.....you want to second guess the leaders? Fine by me. Maybe you’re right. Maybe not.

But under NO circumstances does it change the fact that 600k people died as a direct result of this virus existing. And to support BS dangerous interpretations of the data that clearly shows that is irresponsible.
