So I was thinking about this today... I went to the ICU back in 2018 in Charlotte, NC. It was the biggest hospital in the area and newly renovated. I slept in the hallway for about 36 hours because they were full everywhere... then I was taken by ambulance to another hospital downtown, where I finally got a room. This hospital too was at capacity. When I walked around my floor, every single room was full.

This wasn't during a pandemic, yet it was at capacity.

Zero way you could have 700k Covid deaths over the last year or so in this same system and not see people dying in the streets or in lines waiting to get a room. Our system just couldn't handle it, because it's made to operate at near capacity 24/7.

Here in Korea I think are the true covid numbers and it's just basically the seasonal flu. In 2019 about 1900 people died of the flu in South Korea. In 2020 about 2100 died of Covid, zero flu deaths reported.

So in one year out of 50 million people, you had 2k deaths... and most likely 90-95% of these are the seasonal flu.... and people who are 80+
