@ponderable saidLikely true, in the ordinary meaning of that term.
Just to collect a few bits from our Paladin of truth:

As I've previously stated:
People like Eladar are the primary problem in the United States.
They continue sticking their heads in the sand and pretend that things are going to go back to the way they were before.
They're stubborn and wrong-headed. They wished and prayed that their "leap of faith guidance" from Donald Trump would bring about better days. It hasn't.
In the real world, there are real consequences: We get more death and suffering and there's no end in sight.
@wolfe63 saidLol, people like me are the only hope for this country.

People like you believe that only UVC radiation neutralizes viruses.

These are figures for the flu season this year in the United States.
31 to 51 million cases, does the corona virus compare?
22 to 55 thousand deaths.
171 dead due to Corona virus, over 22 thousand dead due to the flu.
@Ponderable
If this C19 had happened 100 years ago like the Spanish flu, there probably would have been even more deaths than the Spanish flu caused.
It is only because of advances in medicine and such that we have kept the death count as 'low' as it is.
However, Trump has thousands of deaths on his hands because he is so stupid and did not think it was a big deal that hundreds were dying. We lost 3 months that had we had real leadership from the top, we would have had by now one tenth the deaths.
And History will absolutely say that.
@sonhouse saidyou do realize the state governors made the calls on procedure dont you? NY and CA had the majority of deaths...thanks to incompetent decisions.
