As tragic as any death is, I just love this trope! It didn’t take long for some of the handflappers to grab it with great excitement from the USA MSM.
The utter stupidity of this “more deaths than Vietnam” trope is exposed when you know a few facts that makes this new MSM taking point ridiculous. ,
How’s this -
• More people die EVERY month in the USA than Vietnam war
• Actually, even more ridiculous, about the same number of people die EVERY week on average in the USA than in vietnam (2.7 mil /year = 52,000 per week)
To make it look even more silly, the CDC predicted that between 29 to 55k people died from the FLU from October 2019 to mid March 2020 which could be about the SAME NUMBER OF DEATHS AS VIETNAM.
