Wow!
The US has 5% of the worlds population and 30% of the confirmed cases in the whole world.
For the authorities or anyone else advocating the lifting of the lock down is absolutely clueless beyond belief.
I'm sure glad I live in Canada where common sense still prevails.
Did you consider how many tests are available in India, or how much truthful information come from China? Baseless percentages sure make things look bad, don't they?
Per the CDC - 22,000 people have died in the past 30 days due to the COVID in the US alone. that's a real number - although I have a feeling that you will find some way to say it's false news, or incorrect due to some data error because you obviously hold PHD's in statistics and disease control and somehow can refute these numbers.
So question for you, Where's YOUR evidence that the mandatory shutdown will kill more people than that? What's the number and at what rate? Links and supporting data is always helpful.
And 80,000 people died of the flu in 2017. I don't remember a shut down then? At the rate of 22,000 right now, that would be 66,000 by the end of the year. I don't see the issue that requires the country to be shut down.
