See what you don't understand is the way the CDC and health officials themselves have stated they count "deaths"... What they are doing is if someone dies and they had tested positive before or after death or if they showed any symptoms such as a cough they are counted as a COVID death regardless of the cause of death or if it contributed to their death. You literally have people that were shot or died in accidents from trauma injuries counted as COVID. They are stacking the numbers to blow it way out of proportion.  The flu and pneumonia both kill 50k+ per year, and we don't shut down the entire economy for it, but we also weren't insensitive to those that died from it.
