> Coronavirus pandemic could cause 40 million deaths if left unchecked
What data can we base this on? Humanity has taken measures to ensure that the pandemic doesn't get to those levels, so any real-world data is obviously going to be much less than 40 million.
We've scaled these donations from corporate profits to household incomes, putting into perspective how much of an impact companies have made. We also made it easy to see how your contribution will stack up against these well-known brands.
We've open sourced the project as well, check it out here: https://github.com/jamrants/donations
