I’ve previously referred to COVID as a “scam.” This sets some people on edge. “Are you denying that the disease even exists? That it kills people? How insane are you?” This is my official response:
COVID has killed 200 times more people than 9/11 in America; of course it's not a scam. Deaths have been even more % above trend than during the Spanish flu. It's not like police shooting unarmed Black men, which is basically a non-event.

The vaccines seem to work so far (though with decreasing efficacy over time due to mutating variants)
