Bugout of what? Aviation? Society? There’s **** loads of stuff that can kill us including life itself. What are you afraid of?
Seems like the Aussie way nowadays is to cower, hide, and wait for someone else to do something! :-)
I love these two comments, bravado in the face of a virus. "Why if that virus dares comes near me, I'ma punch it in the nose" Give that man a gun and let him loose.
Now what if the virus turns out to be a conservative virus and not a liberal or even worse a damn socialist virus with communist aspirations, will you still stand up to it. I will be brave in the face of this virus, that will stop it, I will show it I'm not afraid of it, yeah, take that virus. I stand proud and will take one for the team for all human kind, because me catching the virus with millions of others will, er, hmm... what will that do? Oh, spread the virus more...... well who would've known.
Reminds me of Borat going around with a pot trying to squash Covid.
You could die from a heart attack or stroke within those 28 days and it'll still count towards their "Death by Covid" statistics. I do not have the time nor inclination to try to find and go through their published cause-of-death statistics to try to determine any significant differences from previous years for each listed cause of death. You're more than welcome to if you so desire...
By your statement that means no one would have died due to AIDS, because you actually don't die from AIDS itself, it just cripples your immune system to the point something benign like the common cold kills you. Covid can do the same, some die directly from the virus, some die by being significantly weakened by the virus and succumbing to something simple and normally non life threatening, or suffering a cardiac arrest or stroke due to the strain on the body.
A medical professional will then report a cause of death with details, such as factors leading to the death.
