You are right. The number from COVID deaths is wrong. 200,000 Americans have not died of COVID-19. And you should share this with everyone.Margaret, lots of people are claiming that 200,000 Americans have not died from COVID. They are right. I did the research. I actually talked to some doctors, did some investigating I spent hours reading about mortality rates. Honestly, its a global pandemic. What better reason will you ever have for dedicating hours to such a boring, mundane endeavor? It would be so much easier to just watch a YouTube video or read a Tweet and draw your conclusion. But why would you do that if it meant putting yourself or your loved ones at risk? To make sure you have the facts, you must dig. So, my dog dug.
Now I know many of our readers are waiting for me to use a few dirty words or make a joke. They expect me to call Trump an asshat. But this really is too important. If you support Trump, my need to make a joke shouldnt be a reason for you not to read this. Nor should it be a reason for a Biden supporter to not forward this to their Trump supporting family members. Because of that, I am going to do my level best to be serious.
If you dont believe that almost 200 thousand Americans have died from COVID-19, you are right.
I dare you to keep reading

(5,125 posts)2. Well, it is getting CLOSE to 200,000
I think TIME Magazine has put up the amount as an approaching mile marker... but 194K is pretty close.

That number is going to show that we're already well over 200K.
