You said 7 figure body counts in 2 years weren't bad by global pandemic standards.
7 figure body counts in 2 years put you in the top ten deadliest natural disasters in human history.
No one was talking about fraction of the population, nor was anyone talking about effective reduction of life expectancy. You specifically were using the metric body count.
If you want to make an argument that this pandemic isn't that bad because the people who died this time don't count for as much as those who died in other pandemics, you can do so, but I think that's a poor strategy for corporate PR.
