Why do we need to draw the line there? Why not at 10k or 1m? It seems like you are advocating we arbitrarily pick the number to not include the flu but to include covid without providing a good reason.
- belltaco 5y agoHow is 10k or 1m not artbitrary? Society has already drawn the line where I stated. You can make arguments for or against it, for example by stating 1M deaths from a respiratory should be okay.
- _-david-_ 5y agoI am not actually saying it should be 10k or 1m. I am saying your numbers appear to be arbitrary and am asking you why you didn't pick the numbers I listed. Also, society has not really drawn the line. Politicians and unelected bureaucrats have chosen for us.
