The Death Toll.
« on: Sun, 05 July 2020, 08:11:02 »
How do you guys personally visualize the numbers ?


They like to compare to ww1/ww2 casualties, but I don't think people really get the scale.

We're at about 130,000 United States deaths +/-  30,000.

Soooo.... That's like ~ 3,333 entire football teams. <3thousand, 3hundred, thirty3>

it's quite alot of people. there are only 32 NFL teams, ~45 players each, so, imagine 100x entire NFL (all teams), all dead.


These are only the semi-official numbers, we're not even getting into undercounting, and potential coverup-manipulation.

130K people is well above the population of an average county in the US.
