I understand the comparison and think the us is having a hard time fighting the virus with its mostly unhealthy population. But I agree a bit with (my understanding of) the parent. The US could make a lot of laws to reduce the number of deaths from all diseases. Tax fast food, make it illegal, whatever. But we decide against that. I feel like people saying "this can save people and doesn't cost that much" are not taking into account that a lot of things can be done and potentially save people, but we have decided as a society not to do them. Also comparing WW2 deaths vs covid death is a terrible comparison. Most deaths during WW2 (in the us) mustve been from healthy, young men vs covis where it's mostly the old and already sick.
