I'll be shocked if it doesn't

Why? Countless businesses and schools have closed. It can't spread if there's no one to come in contact with.

And those 1 million will consist 99% of the elderly and immune-compromised.

Imagine trying to downplay 1 million lives.

Also things for young people are getting a little worse in France and Italy because young people are idiots and think they are invincible. Even if all of them survive, that's hospital beds critical tools that could have gone to someone who wasn't an idiot.

There are places that will never close.

Imagine all the hospitals and groceries

How is that any better? It'd still be people dying.

No one that has a working brain is trying to downplay even a single life, my friend. But that's just how the facts go. The older you are, the more vulnerable you are to disease and age-related complications. I'm not saying to abandon the elderly and immune-compromised. But that's how biology works. It sucks, but that's why prevention is more important than treatment. It costs less money and the logical choice.

And just about everyone who read this comment think you're saying that they don't matter because reading comprehension is hard.

It's like saying the virus originated in Asia. Literally a fact.

Ignore when people say that the title length is not important, that a title should just convey what the game is about. They're just jealous theirs isn't as long

Basically.

I'm not being disrespectful, naive, ageist or condescending. That's literally how disease works, epecially for a respiratory dominant one like COVID-19.

I mean, everyone is aware of that fact. The way it was stated made it seem dismissive of those deaths.

I mean yeah, I could have added more to my first post in a second sentence, but that just goes to show how people don't view the bigger picture. Sure, when you look at 1 million deaths in a country of 327 million, which is barely over a 3% mortality rate, that's obviously not a good thing at all. But that's how demographics come into play, and why everyone should be taking any and all preventative measures for the ones that are 60+.

I honestly don't think so.

Unless China is lying, their cases are rising but the number seems to be dropping as far as new cases. And they weren't nearly as prepared AND they live in much closer quarters than most of America does.

Assuming we do better than them, which we most certainly will, I doubt we will get to a million deaths.
