If we lost 10 million life-years then the average American lost 0.03 years or 1.5 weeks.
But it's true we all wasted two years of our life on this
I've had a perfectly productive last two years. I suspect you are blaming COVID for your own disappointing mediocrity.
Sure you did. You wasted most of your free time, you wasted your $99 subscription, your thread was nuked and now you're just flailing around without a home embarrassing yourself even further than you were previously by a few boomers.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) officially announced the end of some coronavirus restrictions on Friday after it was reported earlier in the week that he would likely do so. The vaccine passport system for gyms, restaurant...
"I trusted my immune system to perform [as] it always does with a mediocre virus that is 99.97% survivable."
It would not make sense to talk about anyone but his immune system in this context.
TBH I don't think it was that obvious. I may not agree with the mathguy's capitals and exclamation points and overall tone, but it's pretty reasonable to think that P-47 was making a statement about the virus's effects on the general population.
Thing is, that 99.97% has been put forward by lots of folks. Yeah, it's way wrong, but I think they're just glomming onto something they've heard, without getting into the math--so not necessarily "lying," just careless.

Define "way wrong". Anyone who thinks they know the actual number is kidding themselves seeing as we have absolutely no idea how many people were infected once let alone multiple times.
Finally, there is absolutely NO evidence that ANY vaccines cause cancer or cardiovascular disease. Just ridiculous. Vaccines engage your immune system. Typically issues with vaccines happen within weeks, and there is no evidence or even a reason to suspect that anything would be different even with these mRNA vaccines (that's how you write that, by the way..."mRNA", not MRNA like you do). You are an idiot.
This is flat out not true. Here is a link to the CDC's website acknowledging the link between the COVID vaccine and Myocarditis. There is plenty of other evidence that could be presented to debunk what you are saying. We could argue whether the risk of adverse impacts from the vaccine are gwillreater than risk of Covid for certain groups or how accurately the cases of adverse affects are being reported. But to say that there is no evidence of any vaccines, especially the MRNA Covid vaccines, causing heart disease is ignorant.
Myocarditis itself isn't considered a cardiovascular disease, BUT I will submit that it can lead to that. When making the reply above, I was more thinking of a the "5 years from now" time frame that the poster I was responding to mentioned. Vaccines do NOT cause issues long term down the road like that. Instances of myocarditis are rare to being with, most clear up on their own without any intervention, and then just about all of the others with extremely rare exception need to be taken care of with some sort of intervention. There is more a chance of getting myocarditis if you get COVID as opposed to getting it from the vaccine.
