About 38,000 per year die in the U.S. from auto accidents. There have been more than 600,000 Covid deaths in about 18 months. So your chances of being killed in a car accident are far less than dying of Covid.Strategy said:
So I have a higher chance of being killed in a car accident.
Have I stopped driving?
There is a youtube video that I unfortunately do not know how to successfully link. " All questions COVID with Dr.Al Johnson and Dr. Peter McCollough " Everyone should listen to this. Dr. McCollough testified before the Texas Senate on early treatment for Covid. They discuss who needs early treatment and exactly what treatment is needed. In discussing children he sad there has only been one death out of the 300+ childhood deaths that was a healthy child. Texas A&M related because they have been treating people in the Honduras.Jarrin' Jay said:Maroon Dawn said:
Facts:
COVID is not a danger to most people even without the vaccine
The media and politicians are creating a false atmosphere of fear about how deadly COVID is in order to increase control over our lives and enrich themselves all the public's expense
These facts are indisputable if you aren't a leftist sheep
Pretty much this. There was a new story the other day about youth in the hospital for COVID and they were talking like it was the black death plague...... right up until the point it was pointed out that it was a fraction of the # of youth hospitalizations for any random year during flu season....

You haven't stopped driving, but I would guess you take precautions, like using a shoulder restraint, following traffic rules, and watching out for idiots that don't follow the traffic rules.

I do not wear a seat belt. Ever. I treat traffic laws like suggestions. I do watch out for idiot drivers.

Wearing seatbelts are actually more dangerous than not, and please don't come at me with any fake news government statistics.

Subtract out the deaths of obese and diabetes in the those under forty......Quote:
"Across all countries (Figure 3), the median IFR [infection fatality rate] was 0.0027%, 0.014%, 0.031%, 0.082%, 0.27%, and 0.59%, at 0-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, and 60-69 years, "

Can you show your work? How did you come to the conclusion that you have a higher chance of dying in a car accident?
that is 0.00869742307
If my math is right (let me know if it isn't) your overall chance of dying in 2019 was 1 in 769
(10000/13)
2019 Odds of dying in the USA
A typical commuter has about a 1 in 5,000 chance of dying in a car crash in a normal year. This is similar to the chance of an otherwise healthy 30 year old dying from COVID-19 if he gets infected. Yet they still happily go on accepting the risk of dying in car crashes by driving places they don't need to go, simply for pleasure.
Risk assessment has just been totally thrown away over the past year and a half.
