1/ 600,000 people have died of Covid in America, which is deeply tragic. But it should also be noted that the same amount of people die of cancer in America every year.

2/ Yet cancer statistics don’t get a fraction of the attention Covid statistics have gotten, and for a reason. Food & chemical companies, Big Ag and all environmental polluters should be held accountable for the massive amounts of carcinogens in our food, air, water & pesticides.

3/ Both government and mass media are under the undue influence of massive industries that literally poison our air, food and water on a consistent basis.

4/ We should be talking about more than just healthcare; we should be talking about why there’s so much chronic illness in the USA compared to other countries. Until we get the money out of politics & break up corporate monopolies that control the media, none of this will change

I need to clarify something. Cancer is not a single illness, but a class of illness; like heart disease or liver disease. COVID is a single illness. That many deaths from a single infectious illness is VERY significant.

1: Cancer isnt contagious 2: The sample size of 1 year is the entire life span of covid (incomparable to cancer which has been around for millennia) 3: The same solution solves both problems 4: Media covers covid because it makes money that way 5: USA Government = mass industries

Cancer isn’t contagious. A kid with leukemia isn’t going to give grandma leukemia. A concert or a church service isn’t going to create a superspreader event. Cancer isn’t going to overwhelm a country’s ICU capacity.

COVID is a single disease, "every type of cancer" isn't. Is there really not enough confusing dishonest and irrelevant bullshit flying around about COVID? That genre needed yet another entry?
