I don’t think there’s going to be a mindset change in the population. The absolute worst estimates are between 0.5 and 1 percent of the population dying.

- rumanator 7y ago> Thr absolute worst estimates are between 0.5 and 1 percent of the population dying. There are news reports right now on HN on how the real death rate on countries that are not falsifying reports might be up to 4 times the assumed rate. The hypothesis is supported by the increase in total deaths compared with the baseline, and after subtracting deaths linked to covid19. This being true, we might be looking into 2 to 4% of the population. Link to the HN thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22723647 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22723647
