I think I heard over 18,000, but people are used to flu and won't panic, this is different and provides the corrupt media and Dems an opportunity to scare their constituents, how nice of them.
I actually knew 2 people that passed away and 2 more that ended up in the hospital as a result of the flu in 2017-18. I believe that year saw 60 or 80 thousand deaths in the US alone.
Can you imagine those numbers under the current corona-hype? We’d have military vehicles in the streets and roving gangs of militia hunting for food and fuel. Glenn Beck would be in his bunker masturbating among canned goods and gold bars.
