Shit, in the county I live in, population about 445,000, total of 347 dead. Less than one per day. Am sure many more than that have died of cancer/heart disease. 1,200,000 Americans die every year of these diseases, yet we don't do all sorts of damage to our country - economic, educational, societal - treating these diseases and/or fighting the spread of them. Treating cancer/heart disease is just a fact of life. Measures to fight spread of cancer/heart disease don't require making people lose livelihoods, making them move away, keeping kids out of school., etc.
Some may say the ChiCom Flu spreads differently. That may be so, but I don't see where all the house arrests, mask-wearing, "social distancing", etc. , have made that much difference.
If state governors had been serious about hampering the spread of this disease with the minimum of disruption to people's lives and infringements on people's rights, they would have locked everything down for two weeks, then outright quarantined the hot spots and buffer zones. Everyone else goes back to work/school/jobs, with some protective measures, such as possibly masks in crowd situations. I could have bought into that. Didn't happen anywhere. WAY too many "governors" went full-Nazi, immediately instituting one-size-fits-all house arrests on entire states. Why? Rural areas are rather different than large cities, inherently requiring a different approach. We saw certain "governors" , such as Cuomo, Newsom, and Whitmer, ruling by whim instead of any sort of common sense. They laughed when they and their sycophants broke rules intended for everyone. Now Newsom faces recall, hopefully Cuomo faces impeachment.
"Trust the science." This term has been used so often that now it's a statement of derision. The science can no longer be trusted. Day-to-day, "they" can't even decide if these "vaccines" are safe to use. NOW, one vaccine maker says a THIRD dose of their shit may be needed. Fuck that. Just another reason to opt out of vaccinations. In the state I live in, Newsom is supposedly relaxing certain oppressive measures. Believe the only reason he is doing so is due to the upcoming recall. And it sure is funny to see how the number of cases has supposedly dropped since the 20th of January. People's trust in government/media/law enforcement/judiciary, never that high, has plummeted. I talk to all sorts of folks, and not one has said "Yes" when I ask them if they trust government to do the right thing. Nobody, and the people I talk with are the Joes, Janes, Hectors, Kims, the people that make our country work.
Said this before, will say it again. Not going to take that much longer to realize that the US response to the ChiCom Flu has been a Vietnam War-level national fuckup. We, as a nation, will be paying the price of some people's power trips for years to come.
