Would most people even know it existed? Let alone care about it?

yeah, we had tvs/ radio and news before the internet. Interational was less convenient than in last 20 years so possibly wouldn't have been as bad.

No, because before the internet we didn't give a shit about fucking chinks. They'd just close the borders to China and Africa and we'd celebrate in the streets listening to Duran Duran.

Freaking out because less than 0.1% of the country has died, almost always with comoribidities.

Compare the coronavirus reaction with the reaction to the 1957-58 flu, which actually killed more Americans per capita. You probably haven’t even heard of that flu, have you?

I said the 1957-58 flu, not the 1918-19 Spanish flu. That’s my point- the 1957-58 flu was deadlier per capita than the current coronavirus, yet it passed without anybody caring, and today it’s almost completely unknown. The 57-58 flu killed about 150,000 Americans, while the Spanish flu killed over 600,000.

Even the Spanish flu was barely remembered until a few months ago. Seriously, how much did you learn about the Spanish flu in middle and high school history? Maybe 2 sentences in the WW1 chapter? If Spanish flu was even considered that big of a deal at the time, I think it would get more coverage in history books.

if current rates hold and there is no reason why they wouldnt this will be far worse than both. Much smarter people than you are currently shitting their pants about corona and you are confident only because you are a retard neet with no real knowledge about anything. 2021 will open a new period in history

That's not what I am saying, brainlet. Coronavirus still has ~1-1.5 years to kill people until most of the world is vaccinated.

The death rate, nor mean age of mortality change as time progresses. How can one be so clamped? I am convinced you're baiting, and not actually retarded.

Oh, yes. Are you referring to the medical professionals operating as amateur politicians, or the politicians operating as amateur medical professionals? I am not the anon which you initially responded to, but that is one of the more brainlet takes i have ever seen on /sci/.

I suspect you don't challenge anything you read/hear because it's coming from somebody with a title that you don't possess? These people have been drastically incorrect since the moment they began drafting projections, and that pattern hasn't ceased yet. Perhaps in the future: don't bother interjecting yourself into dialogue if you are not capable of keeping up with the conversation yourself.

Yet it caused an even smaller rise in excess deaths than COVID-19.

I haven't heard of similar diseases being more deadly in the summer than in the winter, in fact it's quite the opposite. We likely haven't seen the worst of SARS-CoV-2.

Link?

Frankly, the “excess deaths” from COVID are because of the media hoopla about COVID anyway. Those are people who don’t go to the hospital because they’re scared of catching COVID there.

Deaths per thousand in 1957 and 1958 hardly differed at all from the surrounding years. If you take 1957, the worst year, and compare it to 1959 a mild year, there's only a 3% change. Meanwhile, 2020 is on pace to exceed previous years by 10%, which would be the highest rise from one year to the next since at least the 1930's.
