How many deaths would have been acceptable?
There have been 187k deaths so far in the continent of Europe, with its total population of 741m.
There have been 200k deaths so far in America, with its total population of 328m.
I suggest that half of our current death toll would have been the upper end of what’s acceptable. Instead it’s double what it should be, because some stupid people were never taking this seriously as early as March.
So I ask you again: what do you think is an acceptable number of deaths? Is there a limit to what you would consider to be acceptable, or does it not matter how many people die?
