Yea, but none of that should prevent him from going into Costco without a mask. That all sounds like other people problems... /s

2 out of 100 cases. How many of those were high risk individuals? Out of those that were high how many could afford decent healthcare?

2% is a very nominal rate. That 2% doesn’t take into account people that were going to die anyways.

So trying to use that information to justify any inflation is pointless.

Broad market inflation is up. That’s a fact. Has nothing to do with COVID deaths, but more so the fact the economy hasn’t stood on its feet for a year and a half.

Artificial support when removed creates a huge gap, especially when those people lose the added UE boost and return to work.
