Sorry to break it to you but there are worse things coming.

@ID2 Ok, so what stats do you believe?

@Love my grandkids The ones she makes up. I’m surprised she got the vaccine since she’s been saying she doesn’t believe in the pandemic from the beginning.

I have noticed that too, that many of the posters that debated the severity of the pandemic have been quick to get vaccines.

I am glad that they at least took this important action.

@chessylady I have no idea where you are getting your statistics (well, actually I can take a pretty good guess), but you are so far off of reality that its hardly worth an argument. Our GNP is about to be outweighed by the trillions of dollars of debt we keep racking up. And "half the children lifted out of poverty"? Outrageous statement. The American Rescue Act has almost NOTHING in it for the average American citizen (estimates are 9% of the bill). And let's don't forget those 3-6,000 unaccompanied children suddenly crossing our Southern border each day. Read the Act!!

No need to "tease" out anything. Deaths are deaths, it's just that deaths from the pandemic brought the numbers of deaths up to make 2020 the deadliest year. Of course there were deaths not related to the pandenic included in this statistic.

I have every right to voice that included in those stats are deaths from other major health issues other than from the Pandemic. I had a cousin die from suicide because she felt trapped locked down in NJ with covid 19 all around and not being able to see her family .

I was just mentioning drug over dose and suicide because the Pandemic over shadowed these serious health issues that has lead to many deaths .

@NYCLatinaMe Awful statistics! Thank Goodness we have the vaccines becoming available to many of the most vulnerable, and then to the rest of us! Hooray for our scientists! And, get with the program you government bureaucrats!

What, do you have something planned?

@skatting44 Nope. Deaths are deaths, regardless of the cause.

All I can say is , Thank God that researchers do tease out the major causes of mortality in the US so others in the medical fields can try to provide better treatment modalities, identify & promote preventative care strategies . How do you suppose there was such an initiative in identifying , preventing and combating cardiac disease . It was from overall mortality rate stats that were teased out to identify the top causes of the US mortality.
