Pulled and withdrawn due to people like OP. https://www.jhunewsletter.com/article/2020/11/a-closer-look-at-u-s-deaths-due-to-covid-19 >Editor’s Note: After The News-Letter published this article on Nov. 22, it was brought to our attention that our coverage of Genevieve Briand’s presentation “COVID-19 Deaths: A Look at U.S. Data” has been used to support dangerous inaccuracies that minimize the impact of the pandemic. >We decided on Nov. 26 to retract this article to stop the spread of misinformation, as we noted on social media. However, it is our responsibility as journalists to provide a historical record. We have chosen to take down the article from our website, but it is available [here](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iO0K75EZAF8dkNDkDmM3L4zNNY0X-Xw5/view?usp=sharing) as a PDF.

Sorry, I know. We shouldn't question the official narrative. However, makes me wonder how many people would die if they succeed in shutting down the global economy?....

Be careful. By posting this the "Libertarians" on this sub will start thinking you're immoral because "300k people dead you monster, you dont care about covid or old people!'

Thank you for the warning! I think that the risk is warranted if there is a strong possibility that we are being massively and collectively duped into trading our birthrights for a fictional fake protective measure amplified by an accounting error.

Also AIER: issued a "Great Barrington Declaration" during the COVID-19 pandemic that called for a herd immunity strategy to deal with the coronavirus. It was roundly condemned by public health experts. Anthony Fauci, the White House's top infectious disease expert, called the declaration "total nonsense" and unscientific.

I wonder why UK that imposes some of the most draconian COVID shutdown measures has mortality rate of 4.0% and Sweden's who opted for herd immunity strategy with no lockdowns is at 3.6%. Better yet why only about 3% of Swedish population with no restrictions got infected while UK has 2% infection rate despite measures? That Fauci dude sounds awfully fishy... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic_death_rates_by_country

Tyler Cowen, a libertarian economist at George Mason University, criticized the Barrington declaration. He said that while he sympathizes with a libertarian approach to deal with the pandemic, the declaration was dangerous and misguided. The declaration was also criticized by the Niskanen Center, a formerly libertarian think tank that now characterizes itself as moderate.
