And are we only worried about death? How about if you are bankrupted by hospital bills?
Let's say you lost your job and your health insurance in the pandemic, do you have the bank account to pay for this? There's no vaccine yet. Ok, go so you unfortunately get it, maybe it's bad enough and you go get hospitalized-- there's a mind-boggling ton of costs! And, eventually you do finally get some treatment, something like Remdesivir is priced at over $3,100 for just one course (even though taxpayer dollars subsidized the development of their drug heavily, which now Gilead is making a fortune on).
There are very severe cascading effects of this pandemic you completely forget about in about 1000 regards.
