No, the Twitter epidemiologists and doctors who built their social media profiles off of Covid hysteria. They fear losing relevancy and have a vested interest in pushing doom and gloom.

Right, Covid is no big deal despite killing mil,ions around the world. Must be nice to have your privilege.

It was reported that Maryland has crossed the 14,000 deaths from COVID benchmark recently. It did make me pause because it seems like a very low number relative to what we went through in the last two years. There are more than 6,000,000 Marylanders, and the 14k deaths were heavily concentrated among the elderly with health issues. I'm sure a decent percentage would have likely died by now from something else had they never gotten infected from COVID.

When I see the cold hard numbers in front of me, it does make me realize how much of what we went through in the last two years was driven by little more than hysteria and fear far more than what was needed. We'd have been much better off with a very different approach to COVID targeted to the high risk demographics.

This. Also compare the numbers to other causes of death. Can you imagine how much better off if we had instead focused on reducing obesity across the country?

Are you crazy? Do you know how many more people would have died if we had just let it rip? Not to mention collateral damage from hospitals being constantly overwhelmed. The numbers you are looking at resulted from the policy you’re pooh poohing.

No, not the exact number. But I do know the vast majority would have been elderly and that we wouldn’t have a problem with social security or medicare anymore.

PP, that's messed up view.

When cases are low, as they are right now, and requirements are relaxed, I don’t mask. I’m not anti, but I don’t need to mask everyday for the rest of my life either. I think we lose a lot of people who would happily comply with masking when needed by insisting it’s some moral failing or willful harm to other people if they don’t mask ALL the time, regardless of the context.

I wouldn’t have minded letting it rip amongst the unvaccinated. They had a choice, they made it, that’s it. Why did we let them receive medical care for Covid??

14,000 includes the unvaccinated. Only about 1400 vaccinated individuals have died from covid in Maryland.

Maskers-continue to stay safe and you cannot change anti maskers minds as they are restless as this is unfortunately longer than anyone anticipated.
