    Earlier this week USA passed 900,000 people dead of covid-19 - how does that stack up to drunk drivers?

      oh, yeah?
      all of those men who had HIV didn’t die of AIDS then. They died of pneumonia, same as all of those patients who had heart disease. Yeah, thats the ticket: they all died of a secondary disorder and not the first disorder at all.

        Are you suggesting 900,000 miss-attributed deaths or just like ~450,000 either way it seems like a lot to slip through the system, I hope there is an inquiry of some sort. Also still a few hundred times worse than drink-drivers i reckon.
