First: I have no reason to trust Russia's reporting on their COVID statistics. Nevertheless, Russia probably should enact more road safety measures had they the resources to enforce them because Russia's road fatality rate is among the worst of developed nations in the world. All that aside: road accident deaths aren't contagious. They happen and they are done. There is no possibility of [exponential] community spread, I don't have to worry about infecting my grandmother, your grandmother via you, or the immuno-compromised children my wife cares for in the hospital.

Of your deceased relatives, may them rest in peace, did anyone consciously choose the way to die? If not, why did they die? Because they wanted to? Because they didn't resort to drastic counter-measures? My grandfather died of electrocution in 1996. Would he be still alive today, given that he was born in 1927, if he would meticulously scrutinize every millimeter of electric cords he ever touched for potential cracks?

  Bad faith arguments all around. There's a clear difference between isolated events and those that possess the ability for exponential community spread. I'm not inclined to debate it further.

    I'm not debating with you. I'm writing this for the occasional sane people coming across this thread who rely on facts and not on the fear of possibilities. For those, a question: if, as they say, the exponential growth is kept at bay by the drastic lock-downs, why haven't Sweden and Belarus die out completely yet? Or Russia, where, I can tell you for sure, most people recognize that this is a staged event to make the wealthy wealthier and the poor poorer and to impose modern slavery and technofascism? Where is that deadly exponential growth being bleated about so hard since January?

      You are creating a straw man argument. You have inferred too much about my beliefs based on my incredulous responses to your bad faith comments. You are debating with me, but I'm not debating with you.

        You will all regret helping to build this global concentration camp one day, mark my words.
