Well, I'm very disappointed.
Your stats don't seem to include how many "Hold my beer" deaths happen everyday.
That should concern everyone.

30 Seconds in - The Best Cure for those who quiver in fear over minor threats, like CoronaFlu. (Or Trump being US President)
13.8% have severe disease (dyspnea, respiratory
frequency ≥30/minute, blood oxygen saturation ≤93%, PaO2/FiO2 ratio 50% of the lung field within 24-48 hours) and 6.1% are critical (respiratory
failure, septic shock, and/or multiple organ dysfunction/failure).
Mortality increases with age, with the highest mortality among people over 80 years of age
(CFR 21.9%). The CFR is higher among males compared to females (4.7% vs. 2.8%). By
occupation, patients who reported being retirees had the highest CFR at 8.9%. While
patients who reported no comorbid conditions had a CFR of 1.4%, patients with comorbid
conditions had much higher rates: 13.2% for those with cardiovascular disease, 9.2% for
diabetes, 8.4% for hypertension, 8.0% for chronic respiratory disease, and 7.6% for cancer.

I find it hard to believe that more people die every day from diarrhea than car accidents, but then again this is America.
KFC is a genocidal monster.

Conservatives. Now is the time to show those balls, let them swing proudly, instilling fear and feelings of insecurity in male liberals while forcing their women to hear the feminine lamentations of their own men while swooning over our right swinging grapefruit-sized metaphorical gonads.

Worst I ever had was in the US... from a high dollar sushi joint in Bellevue, across Lake Washington from the notorious urban Hell, Seattle. Ironically, it wasn't the sushi but rather a bad order of spring rolls. You ever eaten something and known a horrible mistake had been made within 5 minutes of eating it? The 3 block walk back to my office was horrible, how I didnt ruin my pants can only be viewed as a testimonial to the power of prayer and faith. Spent the entire afternoon in the toilet at work... then an extremely difficult Sound Transit trip to the park and ride where my Jeep was. A half hour drive from there to my townhouse.
Didnt eat for nearly a week after that. Was in bed with the shivering fever for 2 whole days living off of nothing but Gatoraide and imodium AD.
. If it does I never eat the place again.
.......just remember the US and UK Left are very different, I'm a proud Lefty but in US terms it seems my politics are pretty Centrist...

Got to disagree with you here mate....anything leftist leaning is deeply frowned upon and in the good ol' US of A you would be stereotyped as a god damn pinko commie bastard.
Boris Johnson would be regarded as 'Centrist' in the States.
social media is playing a much larger role in fanning the panic,
Is there really any wonder as to why americans dislike anything left leaning, when the USA spent nearly 50 years in a propaganda and cold war with the soviet union.
....so I have to ask , how much of the USA's propaganda machine had an affect on how americans view left leaning politics and ideology .
If America hadnt had a cold war with russia, would America be a socialist workers republic today ?
