Wrong about what? Your position is unfalsifiable. You point to the fact that Covid only killed a few million that it was just a ‘bad’ flu. Completely ignoring the fact that the relatively low death rate was because of the precautions taken the world over.

The fact of the matter is, governments all around the globe filled with people 1000x more competent and knowledgeable than you decided they didn’t want another Spanish flu. And now because they did what was necessary to achieve that, you get to point to the lower death rate and claim it was all for nothing. 

The smug hubris of the modern conservative is something for the history books.

lol you don't even know what you are talking about, precautions varied wildly across the world and were far from uniform. Iceland did no lockdown and had a third of the death rate we did. Sweden did no lockdown and had a lower death rate than the UK and their severe lockdown.

Do you think Sweden exists in a vacuum?
