As of 3/20/2020, taken from John Hopkins University, the number of confirmed Covid 19 infections worldwide are 275,429 with 11,397 deaths. The death rate also increases/decreases based on the infected individual's age and global location and access to health care.
For simplicity, the death rate would be 11,397/275,429 = 4.14% globally.
Many like to compare the covid 19 virus to the flu and show how much more deadly it is. The death rate for the seasonal flu is about 0.1% So since we are comparing apples and oranges. Consider this:
The CDC reports that in 2016 in the USA there were 3,941,109 births.
So out of 100 humans that were brought in to existence, nearly 14 of them were intentionally discarded. Like an infection. Treated as if they were a disease. A virus for which there is no vaccine. Except we are talking about a living brother or sister.
Social distancing? That's been going on for millennia. Not only have we as a world kept our distance to the ugliness of the practice of abortion, but we've glorified it, fashioned it into a badge and labeled it feminism. We haven't been fighting for those that are unable to defend themselves.
Instead we've been keeping our distance from the millions of voices that have been silenced and kept in the dark.
Replaced with justification, rationalization, antagonism, indifference.
