The same is true for rich people: you can afford to buy in bulk, to take advantage of special promotions. And sometimes, even when spending more money on products one gets to have better quality on the long run.

> All said covid is >7x as deadly as seasonal flu and you have more deaths with no comorbidities.

You have some studies proving this? Because all the studies I have read flu is a lot more dangerous. For all ages.

While I agree that some people need to create models, it is very important to understand that not everyone is able to create them. For example journalists should not be able to create such models, they lack the knowledge.

Everybody is creating "models". How about asking the doctors? Don't they have some trustworthy studies in the three months that have passed?

Let's skip Facebook and Twitter and analyse the data that we have. What does it tell us?

When I was in med school you didn't die because of the flu. People died because they had diabetes or HTA which got some complications like low immunity, a failing kidney and so on.

Did these things change in current medicine?

You are missing the market here. If you pay Canadians high wages and you set high prices for fruits you cannot sell them in poor countries. And this means that the profits for that Canadian corporation will be cut in half. And the rich people at the top will suffer.

In the mean time poor countries will start planting their own trees with their own people and appropriate prices for their country. And Mexico will have their own corporation making money.

You can't grow 1 ha of tomatoes and go sell them them to supermarkets. They want stability of hundreds of kilograms every day.

You are building the world around your arguments. You have no proof but still talk, talk, talk.

In normal times Italy has a death rate of 10 deaths/1000 people. Which translates to ~1500 daily for a population of 60 millions. What were they doing previously with the dead?

People seem like computers these days: they only think in logarithms, they "forget" to add some common sense.

The classic fake news model: post some shit with no evidence that is immediately validated by some other worried internet person.

The deaths were always real. Putting the whole planet on hold because some 80 years old with three associated illnesses died is a bit borderline SF and a bit borderline stupid.
