This is ridiculous. I'm sure they have lots of cases of tons of other highly transmissible respiratory diseases that kill almost nobody, the statistics of which you are simply not privy to.
Please, for the love of god, can people on both sides of this debate stop envoking "science being real" as some kind of lazy catch-all gotcha? It's completely retarded. Science is *usually wrong*. The whole point of the scientific method is to widdle down the results of experimentation over decades until we can conclude what is likely true, most of the time, based on evidence and research. The vast majority of scientific theories are wrong, we have the luxury of enjoying the ones that are right. Appealing to science in some generic sense is foolhardy and very much unscientific.
Science told us that consuming cholesterol and fat was the primary driver of heart and cardiovascular disease for decades, until we learned that genetics play a much larger role than diet. A bad scientist is a scientist who is unshakable in their conclusions. A good scientist is the first to doubt and scrutinize their conclusions, and do everything in their power to prove them wrong.
SARS-cov-2 has only been a thing for about 11 months. It generally takes decades to actually tease out the danger profile of any given disease, but thankfully this one is trending toward the plethora of other not very dangerous viruses.

Highly transmissable, 300k dead, leading cause of death in United States this year. It is not an undangerous disease. You're just a deranged sicko.
And shaddup about scientific dialogue. You ghost everytime a substantive challenge is posed. And come back spamming the same deluded shit.
