funny enough my life didn't change in the least bit when they had the lockdowns and canceled everything.
What is the purpose of this comment? I dont understand.

I have the same effect of this no-vid thing. I came from the hospital from a comatose injury. I haven't left the house since 1997. I woke up to a way different world than I knew when I went down.
@@vangildermichael1767 24 years?! How long were you in a coma? That seems pretty extreme.
The covid's here for so long even GradeA managed to make a video about it while it's still on going.
That's the true way you know a long time has passed lol

Covid has been going on so long Grade has been able too put out 9 videos in that amount of time.
That's like, 10.
Mind=blown
🤯
Trueeee :0 wtf that long it even makes his upload scedual look fast
dude people who dislike this doesnt understant gradeAs jokes. H e OVERSIMPLIFIES ANYTHING and this times it happends to be a "Controversal" topic. these are not suppose to be any real arguments
I didn't think Grade would know how to use premieres, he feels like he's stuck in an older period of RUclips still, I say that in the best way possible.
Nothing but a little google search and a RUclips vidya search will fix that right up, Grade got this! 😏😉
Nah, premiers were stupid from the start, max premier time should be an hour. I lose interest, or just don't have time to return to it. Premiers are one of the dumbest additions to RUclips.
This is the best use of premieres I've seen in all of RUclips.
Don't immediately release a controversial video: scope out what the reaction would be like just by having the video exist, but not in a watchable state. Just as a mere idea.
Genius.
It would make the follow-up video much quicker. lol
This nigga about to get canceled 😭
@@devoutdesciple true I think part of the joke is just having this title and thumbnail and having to wait lol
Grades just doing this so that after he disappears from RUclips for another year, he can blame this video.
Lmao good one
oh well
This is gonna be the last video of GradeAUnderA ever before he 'get's in a accident'
And that's how grade lost his channel. Good night, everyone..
It might even get him banned off RUclips. 😭😭😭 Grade be careful!

Are you sure these aren't just tales from the punchbowl?
I may not have died from COVID, but I completely lost my sense of smell for almost an entire year. I also can't hold my breath as long anymore, and I noticed that when I do cardio, I have to work somewhat harder at it than others now as well. The damage was still done
What did the doctors say? Possible long covid?
@@StevenoftheDead My doctor told me that some people just end up with permanent damage from contracting the virus. I'm lucky to have gotten my sense of smell back thankfully, but the other issues are still there
@@VikingSloth I'm sorry man. I wish you the best
@@StevenoftheDead thank you man, same to you
Sorry to hear that mate hope you’re doing alright
I agree that the *deadliness* is overplayed, but there is a lot of shit that can permanently go wrong besides just death. Not to mention that we literally all have family over 45, unless you've been very very unlucky, so you take precautions for their safety
Exactly, surviving =/= thriving!!! The only application of this data is if you are in p erfect health, are under 45, and never see people that are over that age/have preexisting health conditions then its totally okay to fuck around. but i agree with the fact that majority of these restrictions have been pointless and have driven quality of life for most people to shit. we are here for a good time, not a long time.
Your second point is fair, but your first point is a little more tricky. Most people who get covid will not experience "long covid" or post covid symptoms, it is at around 20-37% (see the CDC, Medical News, Time Magazine). Even then, most who do will only experience minor symptoms. Even then, most who do experience harsher symptoms are mostly going to already be in the at risk population.
I hate to say this folks, but we can't shut the planet down to make a virus go away. It would take over 100 years of perfectly clean global super quarantine just to make the flu go away for a single generation. The flu will just come back m8. Same with many other viruses able to survive outside of humans. I'm not exactly sure that the Rona is gonna be an exception.
An analogy that can also be used is car accidents and car accidents that result in deaths. Theres a LOT more car accidents that don't result in death, but result in injury ranging from extremely dilapidating for the rest of the life, through to wounded for a period of time, to a slight bruise.
Covid is the same, while the death statistic is what you see in the news, everyone else will have stories from friends or family ranging from "yeah all I had was a sniffle", though to "I cant extert myself otherwise I have trouble breathing and its been like this for months now".
The precautions in place to reduce covid spread and the vaccine are like having crossing walks, seat belts and traffic lights; they dont stop traffic accidents, but they sure as hell reduce them.
@@banana_na Even the data he showed is terrifying. Out of 37000 people, almost a thousand die? How many families are ii that 37000? People aren't numbers in a void, they're part of communities, families, and have friends. Next how many of those people survived by taking up space in the hospital? How many lives were lost because everybody got covid and putting people on ventilators has become the prime goal at hospitals? How many of those people who died had children or were married? How will they survive the loss of half or possibly all of their income? These are all terrifying questions to me. With all the "fear" the media is throwing down our throat a huge percentage of our population doesn't even want to do anything period to combat these questions. We will have to answer them, not the people in imaginary 37000 land.
People making discussions but I’m just expecting a joke video where he says something like “I don’t go outside anyway so being kept inside ain’t too bad. What’s the deal?”
That's not an expectation, it's a fact, self degradation is the highest form of comedy.
Smh, a coof believer
Honestly that's peak Grade
“Oi! What’s da phucken deal wit da Corona virus anyway?!”
Correct, it's going to be even more funnier the moment video is launched and then people from 2 months later starts asking about these other guys what they're talking about because their topics are barely relevant to this video.
I think it would have been better to calculate hospitalization rates rather than death rates. Using death statistics gives the idea that you either have no symptoms at all or drop dead, which isn't fully true. If you instead look at hospitalization you are able to see the more realistic group of people who didn't die but were severely negatively affected physically and even financially.
yeah the idea that we should only base a diseases negative effects on people and society based off of death rates and death rates only is rlly dumb.
in reality though, if you get a disease and recover from it, then it makes you more resistant to it, making your chances even smaller
@@Daniel-6179 there can still be long lasting effects that persist.
Ebola has like a 60% death rate, yet COVID has killed more people in Africa than Ebola has. People don't understand that diseases with lower death rates are more dangerous because more people get it. It's way more contagious and that's why COVID sucks.
@@Daniel-6179 you do know that is not true. Your immune system doesn't become super immune it can only do so much
People seem to forget that the problem isn't the rate it kills. The problem is the ICs filling up with poeple who stay there for about 1 to 2 weeks. This for example can cause the postponing of life saving surgeries. Allot can happen between the time you were planned to have this and the new date.
Even that number is overblown. I was in the ICU with pancreatitis and asked the doctor how many they get to the ICU with covid. He said 3 in the past 2 months.
Tell that to the empty ICUs
Anecdotes are famous for being a reliable way of creating a worldview
most people who got covid did not need to be hospitalized. many were and did not need to be

its so surreal seeing loli being mentioned on a grade A video, the impress i got from him years ago was he was a brit hillbilly up north who doesn't even know what anime is
allright it's been fucking bugging me for so long how this misses the point of covid so much (imo).
First off, it's not just about the deaths; getting covid can lead to reduced lung capacity; there's a number of issues that can arise from the rona; from nothing, to pneumonia to sepsis (gradual shutdown of organs, if survived brings permanent lung injuries). Some patients have even shown to have scarring in the lungs, and whether the effects are permanent or not from this scarring is unknown.
Secondly, yes, only a small percentage of people die from it but if we look at the infectivity we get a disease that will spread beyond rapidly; to put it into perspective if you get the flu, on average you will infect 1.4 people (if such a division exists), if those people go out and infect more and more and more (untill you have 10 generations of infections) you're responsible for 1.3^10 = roughly 14 people getting sick. And here comes the kicker which noone sees coming; Coronavirus' infections are much higher, on average *3*.
If we run that through the same calculation; if 10 generations of infections happen you get 3^10 = 59.049 people. From ONE infection.
I agree the coronavirus is overhyped but its infectivity and negative side-effects should NOT be overlooked like you do in this video. I love you Grade but goddamn, this missed the mark IMO.

5:33 he doesn't undermine anything about the effects of COVID-19. All he says is that people are fear mongering which is true, especially since even if you usut accidentally forget your face mask stores won't allow you in even if it was just that once.
remember but its not just about covids own rate it can also lead to irrepairable damage.
But the vaccine hurts :(

@@mahlawn2808 i have no idea
Surviving and dying isn’t the only outcome of covid lol
Exactly! I can't believe people still look at it like this. Like it can literally fuck up your lungs, heart and brains. Even if you didn't get 'sick' from it.

Uhhh American here what do those words mean?
@@f-22raptorlandingzone30 same what is this language?
This is just Grades View point. We still need to think for ourselves regardless of what he says.
I've already gathered enough information to make my own conclusion. It is exaggerated.
My mother got it a year ago. She was 77. She also had Strep throat and type two diabetes at the same time.
She recovered within a week and she’s still alive as of today. March 3, 2024!
You're lucky. I had an elderly family friend who died because of it.
At least here in Portugal it was made clear that the problem isn't the death rate, but the infection rate - if everybody gets sick at the same time, the health system will collapse, since there's no way we can treat an infection rate od 2000 new cases a day, as it came close. In fact, some hospitals in the country entered a state of collapse during the second wave.
Exactly!
Same in Sweden
Yup, grade missed the point

ok but what about the people who get covid and get symptoms besides dying?
There's over 40 million of them, my mom and dad included. They're fine.
@@jrr6947 that's an amount. For some reason people have only looked at death rates and not symptoms and their rates. People need to see what happens when you get covid and the worst that could happen most frequently while alive.
@@hkayakh That would be like trying to look at long term symptoms from the common cold.
Its hard to measure. One could say heart problems, or dementia are symptoms, but there will never be enough data to make a proper correlation.
@@VeNoM0619 when it comes to corona that’s almost 2 years old, we should see what the symptoms are because it’s pretty recent still.
@@hkayakh Most people have argued about "long term effects" on both sides of the argument (of both vaccine, or the covid).
It's all wishy-washy however, because its opinion. Is 2 years considered long term? Because some people legit say that we dont know if its like rubella where it comes back 40 years later as shingles.
In the end: get the vaccine. Because you are being a drain on society with your hospital bills when you get infected and ask for medical help when you could've done it for free.

@@gummy5862 what are you talking about? your comment is barely intelligable. are you insinuating that lockdowns should only happen for old people? that is very naive, lockdowns are good for everyone since they reduce overall spread, making hospitals less packed ergo helping the elderly who might deal with covid and anyone else hospitalized for any reason. and since they reduce overall spread, this makes it less likely for old people to get infected in the first place. Also, the impacts of severe covid cases are bad even when they don't kill people, meaning it was important for more than just the elderly to avoid getting the virus.

Yeah, the "deadliness" is overhyped - publications definitely should have made a much bigger effort to communicate that the issue is hospitalization rate, and that the death rate sky rockets when the hospitals are full.
And of course long term side effects as well.
People literally did stress this. Remember everyone talking about keeping infections low to not overwhelm hospitals? There was a graph circulating social media showing the point of infections that we needed to keep it below to keep hospitals from being overwhelmed and how at the time we were projected to go way above it. Spoiler alert we did.
This. This is what has been going on for almost 2 years. I can't understand how this is still not clear to people, though I mostly blame governments and media for not communicating this correctly.
No, I got friends who work in medical care and checked the numbers for my country, the number of people going to ICUs has actually gone down from before covid, the biggest problem is that people often are just straightup dumb and go to the hospital without a serious case or any at all
Some governors in America are firing thousands of nurses and valuable hospital staff over not getting vaccinated, I don’t wanna hear about overcrowding in hospitals anymore since they were dumb enough to pull a move like that.
I love your videos but I’m just going to say as someone who’s relatively young (37) and had COVID sure my chances of survival are fantastic but a year later I’m still suffering long term effects. My lungs are still healing, I go through extreme exhaustion and it fucking sucks. We also still haven’t learned the long term effects of COVID but so far signs are pointing to negative things
Yeah it's narrow minded to judge the severity of covid by only the mortality rate
@@Xymage Except that there is evidence for this. Search up long covid genius. As for the long term effects, going back at least as far as the polio vaccine, which was widely released to the public in the 1960s, we’ve never seen a vaccination with long-term side effects, meaning side effects that occur several months or years after injection.
And, in every vaccine available to us, side effects - including rare but serious side effects - develop within six to eight weeks of injection.
@The Big Kiwi How does it sound worse?
@@rll1236 It sounds worse cause its got bad vibes man
@@rll1236 first off not true, all vaccines cause adverse effects in very small numbers of people (smaller numbers than the death rate if there were no vaccine.). Secondly he is right. Anecdotal evidence is not evidence. Thirdly the placebo effect is very real, just as real as any disease. If you get covid and you are so scared of long term effects that you convince yourself you might get them, you probably will. Maybe go on a date with a girl, buy a new video game or pick up a new hobby, and take a week's vacation off of work. When you aren't thinking about your long term effects, they might go away. Sorry just as someone who has seen a lot of the numbers and heard a lot of actual virologists talk about covid, it really looks about as threatening as the flu. Even attacks the same cells and has a similar mechanism to the flu. For those of you who don't understand immunology or virology at all, just understand the "chemicals" that make up the "weapons" this virus has are damn near identical. So yeah I'm still not convinced as someone who researches actual biochemistry and immunology.

Covid is not the problem, the Government’s response to Covid is the problem.
facts
Nah it’s all overhyped
"Covid is not the problem"
Well it’s kinda a problem
“Guys, covid totally isn’t the problem”
Ok so the main problem with just looking at death rates is, that death rate should always be compared to infection rates. A good example of this is Italy, where people just ended up in mass graves because nobody could keep up with the body count. Even though 2% doesn't seem high, if it's 2% of just a million (and there were many more cases than that), that still 20000 dead. And Italy had a much higher deathrate than that because their health system couldn't keep up with the insane demands put on it. Also yeah, it is by far the most dangerous to people who are already suffering from old age or other health issues. Problem with that is, that while it might not be as dangerous for young healthy people, we can still give it to people who don't have the advantage of being young and healthy. So in order to protect the vulnerable people in society, the healthy people have to avoid getting it as well.
Also death isn't the only issue with covid. There are many cases of lasting effects such as brain damage and lung damage even in young people as well. It isn't a case of "if you survive it, then you won't have any issues at all". You might not, but you also just might.
Rant over.
This has way too much nuance and sanity for a comment under such a video that's why you only have one like... But here I'll double that number for you my friend 😂
I couldn't have said it better myself
The "brain damage" bit is from a non-peer-reviewed study. Lung damage is exceedingly rare too.
Also 'underlying conditions' doesn't mean they would have died anyway, So you can't just say every death with an underlying condition wasn't a covid death, so that's another false part of his argument.
In my province more people have died of smoking cigarettes in that last year than have died of covid, so honestly I don't care about all these lockdowns and bullshit, if the government really cared about us than they wouldn't be picking and choosing which issues to freak out over

Yet here you are..

There's a lot more things that needs to be considered. Firstly there are many variants and the fatality and transmissibility rates will vary between them. I have a friend from Wuhan who told me that one of the original variant that existed in Wuhan was a lot more fatal and the COVID situation there was a lot worse than other countries, such as in the UK.
Secondly COVID is very transmissible. Even if it only kills 1% of the people that is a lot. You used 37000 in your example, but realistically, if it is not controlled by lockdown, etc, if it infects like a billion people then millions will die. A virus with a high infection rate and low mortality can probably end up killing more people than a virus with just a very high mortality rate, as such a virus will kill of its own host before they can transmit. So a low mortality rate is not necessarily a good thing.
A very important thing is that a lot of these people with COVID who may or may not end up dead will go to the hospital. The increase in the hospitalisation rates due to COVID can overburden the health care system. People who are supposed to have surgeries and stuff may have to get postponed because there aren't enough doctors and facilities. So an important thing to compare is how the increase in patients in a country compares to the capability of their healthcare system. If the health care system is overwhelmed due to insufficient funding in that country (like the NHS) then it can easily kill a lot more people as a secondary impact.
I am no expert on COVID and I thought of these points. I am sure those who are actually into it will be aware of a lot more. It is important to consider all of these points as well.
hospitalisation rates my ass did u see all the nurses doing shit tok dances
Exactly, he didn't even go over the amount of people who have permanent damage like loss of smell and lung capacity. I know a few people who lost their smell for months after getting covid. One of them still hasn't gotten it back and it's been almost a year. They can't enjoy food anymore and have lost 50 pounds. The most important thing is the strain it has on the healthcare system.
@@awsome14619 Healthcare is designed to be strained, that's the flaw, you have a wave of immigration, strained, you have a breakout virus, strained, you have a little fearmongering or are just a bit unlucky, strained. You will never call the NHS and not be put on hold, no one is that lucky.

To me it would be pretty horrifying if out of 50 people I knew would die just of covid. This is apart from the fact that a lot of people who get the virus but survive, have long lasting effects that fuck up their lives. My uncle for example isn't included in this death statistic. However, he lay unconscious on the ICU for weeks before thankfully waking up, but he will never go back to being even close to his old self. He might be a pretty severe case, however a lot of young people just like me will continue to have long lasting symptoms, like being tired all the time, to the degree that they're not even able to do their job. Furthermore, these statistics only account for the situation where we actually took pretty severe measures to contain the virus. Death tolls per infection would've been way higher at the point where our healthcare system wouldn't be able to provide adequate care for all patients anymore. As a matter of fact, this already sort of happened, because what at least is the case according to medical professionals in my country, a lot of plannable healthcare had to be cancelled or delayed. This has also lead to many preventable deaths. Then there is the toll on the health care workers themselves, which I've personally experienced, due to my girlfriend and other family members working in healthcare. I know this is a long ramble, however there are just too much points to be adressed when you just tell us to look at the numbers. Numbers by themselves don't mean anything, they need context and interpretation.
Yep. I usually like grades videos, like I'm a huge fan - but this is the only video out of literally all of his videos I've disliked. It doesn't matter if it's a joke, it is dangerous.
One of my relatives died in COVID and many others got it. It doesn't matter how few died. It had long lasting (if not permanent) side effects such as loss of taste and many others. The morality rate isn't the huge issue, it's the infection rate. They affect each other. More infections = more deaths. The reason why people didn't die as fast is berceuse we had restrictions, online school and similar and thus, less people got infected with it which means one less grandma dead. It also means much less strain on health care. Many people haven't gotten the treatment - covid or not - they needed and many therefore died, regardless of having covid.
Thanks for saving my virtual breath

It’s great that not that many people die from covid and all, (also not news at all, we’ve known this almost since the beginning) but my loved one had their BRAIN CANCER surgery postponed last minute because the ICU filled up. There are more deaths if the virus is left to spread freely, deaths from the overburdening healthcare not being able to take care of anyone else but those mostly old covid patients. And they’re in the ICU for like weeks, the typical average stay is way shorter.
Are we related? because i had the exact same thing happen to a relative of mine suffering from brain cancer.
@@jordyn.24 probably not, I live in Europe 😄 but sucks that your relative also had to go through that!
Not that many? More than one in fifty is not many? And a much higher percentage of people have long term health problems because they caught covid.
@@BlissetEris I was just trying to imitate the tone of gradeA’s video in a slightly sarcastiv manner. I agree with you on there actually being too many deaths especially in vulnerable populations and there’s a large amount of even young people with long covid: a friend of mine a healthy 24 year old, was unable to properly do any sports because of her lungs for like a year after her infection.
Yes you're right, for that reason the effects of covid causes more deaths than the virus itself. I think the medical system is to blame here. Since covid is as deadly as you see in the video, then maybe give priority to patients with diseases that actually have a 70% death rate (just my way of putting it).
look at all those people who never seen a gradea video before
This video felt like it was meant to be released last year. All of these arguments have already been discussed and evaluated. The real issue lies with long-covid and the aftereffects, which can last for several years, including great pain for pre-diseased people.
It wasn't his intention to deny the threat of covid-19, but there's more to it than just the rate of mortality.
You don't need to live in fear to take safety measures, all of you stay safe.
Life is more complicated than a few numbers?
That's news to most of the people here.
The numbers Grade mentioned also don't take into account the rate of intake at hospitals and the healthcare system in general being overrun when cases are too frequent, which causes the numbers to increase for a period of time.
yup, take safety measures. if you are in that small % of at risk you should stay inside. while the VAST majority of people that will be FINE, continue living life. too late for that though, the scared have already allowed the government to tank the worlds economy.
@@jacobmonks3722 ya and the fact that if you got hit by a bus and died and had covid symptoms they would put you down as you died from covid
@@Squids_Vlogs That's a straight up lie lmao
It is not the deadlyness, it is how quickly it spreads, and how many gets so sick they can't do work. you are not sick one week and then back to normal the next. Most suffer sever hit to their condition and muscle mass. Buddy of mine was not back to 100% for a year, but it took a month to shake the fatigue, and further three before he could start martial arts again. and for nearly eight more to get back to the strength he had before covid.
It is this that is dangerous, as it removes people for a long time from the workforce, and if you do labour, instead of a cushy office work, you might need months to get back into full time work hours.
second is precisely that it kills our elders, I got grandparents and friends that can't risk getting sick with this virus(grandpa's lungs are especially in poor order, the main area damaged by this virus), and them dying because I spread it to them is what really got the fear.
Thank god, someone who actually has more than 3 braincells.
The paranoia has gotten staler than the virus at this rate.
Exactly. People who are unaffected by the virus don't really care until it's too late. And by doing so they're not only harming themselves but also the people around them.
Not to mention the more it spreads the more likely it is for deadlier and more infectious strains such as Delta.
thats not true. Had covid myself and ive had hangovers that were far worse.

Tbh honest I use dark humor to cope. Not much humor sadly
My grandma cannot start her cancer treatments because there is no room in hospitals due Covid patients need more "Acute treatment".
He left out ICU admissions. The point isn’t the deaths in the population. The point is the deaths cause hospitals can’t work properly cause ICU is being taken up by a preventable virus, hospital workers can’t go to work on their patients (who are mostly shit Health and immunocompromised), because they’ve been infected by the virus and people can’t go see loved ones in hospital/nursing homes because a quick virus that spreads like fire is in the population and you never know which people have it. So people have to either go kill their grannies and other peoples grannies by accident or stay away and miss out on time left with them. Which are both shitty options. But only one affects more than 2 people at most
Nah it's 100% black and white. You either instantly die or feel nothing at all without any long term effects and hospitals have infinite beds.
The majority of people who go into the ICU are overweight or old. If the CDC promotes healthier lifestyle choices on top of people willingly getting the vaccine I bet those numbers would drop dramatically. Can’t say much for some of the elderly but a healthier lifestyle does make a big difference.Also people who smoke are at risk aswell because they have weaker lungs. This isn’t due to normal average people spreading this with malicious intent this is the outcome of people’s life choices as sad as it may be.
@@aruanamic8766 I do agree with this in a way. As well as giving people, who end up in ICU after refusing vaccines, low priority to be treated. As it already is with organ transplants in smokers, and should be for people willingly living unhealthy lifestyles.

So we all agree this is survival of the fittest
how about you hop on the tread mill and stop shoving twinkies down your throat.
It’s not just about deathlyness (the 2% is actually quite large) but also about the people who get permanent lung damage or aren’t able to work for 6 months after recovering. Also note that the virus spreads very easily due to the 2% death ratio which means that if we let it do its job the hospitals fill up and the death percentage rises, as well as people will start dying from other things due to there being no room.
Imagine your parent getting covid and having a slightly below 1/50 chance to DIE. That’s insane…
Two weeks to flatten the curve

Where is he even getting those myths he is "debunking"? I have literally never heard anyone say "70% death rate" or "all ages affected equally" and all that stuff. We know the overall rate isn't that high, and that it's most dangerous for older people with existing health issues. So what? Because I personally probably won't die, I don't care about spreading it more? Overfilled hospitals, not my problem? Long term effects even if you don't die, not an issue?

@@HackersSun Oh gee, the predictions that were made at the beginning of a completely new and never dealt before pandemic disease were not 100 %. Must be the illuminaty behind it.
"I am not dead, that means it is perfectly fine."
I’m sure this video is not going to start any arguments and not be controversial at all
I'll start an actual argument. The numbers aren't lying, but Grade is lying using numbers.
I've sort of been saying this since the very beginning, to the people who are super frightened of it. BUT the problem with this is that it treats people with underlying illnesses or older people like they're expendable or something.
Main thing is all the lockdowns are because the hospitals got overwhelmed. It may only be old people and people with underlying conditions but there were so many at the same time that there wasn't enough ventilators to help them or bed spaces, and all the other parts of the hospitals run low on staff and space etc., which is why we did all the lockdowns and wear masks and stuff.
But ultimately, yes, MOST of us don't have to be as scared as a lot of people seem to be, and the press have had a field day with the fear stuff, but do spare a thought for the people who ARE old and DO have underlying conditions, they're not expendable, ya know?
Exactly. The reason young, healthy people have such a large survival rate NOW is because our taking strides in reducing spread helps with hospital resources. Obviously most of them are stretched thin already, but if everybody just decided to say "screw it, I'm not 60, I'm safe", then there'd be a lot more sick people, a lot less resources to go around, and an increased death rate than we currently have. Low numbers doesn't automatically mean a disease isn't dangerous, it could just mean we're doing something right.
This is a great summation of it yes. To add to it, my partners mum works in a care home for the elderly. At the start of last year there were around 84 patients. By summer it was around 30. Most dying from covid. Each one someone's mum, dad, friend etc. The opinion of "well lockdown shouldn't have happened because it only effects older people" is daft. You're basically saying "well f them they're expendible". Not to mention if the hospitals become overwhelmed because we didn't lock down, then how many more people would have died?
This is the thing I dislike about the statistic he put out. Yea the numbers don't lie. But you leave out a lot of the finer details, like calculating those numbers up to the whole world population, ignoring that there's more after effects than just dying, and also the reality of being able to be infected more than once and maybe every year without proper vaccination and safety. Suddenly all the healthy people below 45 that had covid once, are now the "prior condition" group and may have a bad case the next year, and a worse the next... There's a lot of stuff that got ignored or dismissed in this video.
And I think 800 something people dying from 37000 is still a lot of people that wouldn't have died otherwise (at least not at that point in time)
Also, with hospitals filled up and doctors/nurses run ragged, it makes things worse for other people trying to get treatment at the hospital. Wait times have exploded and you are discouraged from going at all if it isn't critical (potentially missing a vital diagnosis etc.).
Further, while it doesn't KILL younger people, plenty get permanent lung damage. Wouldn't be surprised if a decade from now we see lung cancer rates explode in that population.

@@Galaxy-zb2ee wellllll that’s not exactly true. Did u see the republicans?
I see where grade is coming from but I see a few flaws with his logic.
•2% of a population is still a really big number. 4,846,981 covid deaths have occurred globally at the time of this video's publishing (info was taken directly the WHO's website).
•Why is the death rate the only thing that's talked about? Why don't we talk about the amount of patients in the hospital due to covid compared to other medical conditions? Why don't we talk about the amount of people who survived but are suffering long term effects? There's more to covid than just a death rate. And the more it spreads and mutates, the more severe it will become.
Just to be clear, this doesn't mean covid is or isn't overhyped. I just see some flaws in his arguments.
That's a good wisdom
A. 4million is a big number if we consider small numbers that we consider in our daily life. Like how many spoons of sugar in a single cup of tea. Then 4 million is a lot. "That's a lot of sugar" you might tell me. And I'd nod with a toothless smile.
But if we consider it relative to what it's actually relevant to, it's a very small number. If we took 8 billion bulls and 8 billion people and shut them in a room for one and a half years, and only 4 million people died, that'd be a really low number. You'd suddenly feel pretty safe sitting with a bull for one and a half years. Because you know that 4 million out of 8 billion is a really low number. And if someone then told you that 3 of 4 million were already old, injured, sick or dying then you'd suddenly feel a lot safer about sitting with the bull than, for instance, idk, living in Fort greene, or using heavy machinery, or driving a car.
After all, driving a car will kill 1.3 million perfectly healthy people per year and vehicle saturation is less than 20% globally. Imagine the numbers in a year and a half if everyone could drive. We'd expect that to be about 10 million if everything scaled linearly.
B. Because hospitalizations is a response and not a result. We could overreact to the flu and treat it the same way, and then if we looked at hospitalizations we'd be convinced that flu is also deadly by that logic.
But regardless hospitalizations are 0.0046% of Americans and 0.0056% of Britons, 75% over 55, 89.3% with underlying illnesses.
Covid will hospitalise 6 people per 1 million who do not have another illness. And 4 of those 6 will be the elderly.
C. Mutation won't stop through hospitalizations, in fact that's how you breed illnesses. And in that process that's how you breed resistant illnesses. Like MRSA.
Flu is incredibly fast to reproduce generations and mutates extremely easily hence why there's so many strains every year dependant on regions. But you stay home with the flu so only you get it and then your body kills it off and you can go back to being around other people. So it doesn't get resistant to medications and it doesn't spread and create millions of different cultures each breeding new strains, increasing the rate of mutation.
Agreed.
@@aunteater4902 here is a smart man
@@aunteater4902 Can show some sources for the hospitalization point , because the delta variant has very been overwhelming. In the surge of cases had filled many hospitals , from what i’ve seen. But i could be wrong , so can i see your source.
I always thought the narrative was that it's only particularly dangerous to old and immuno-compromised people, but young people are used as transmitters given how contagious it is.
That's how it is mainly in the UK
That or people will deny its existence
Narrative? Obvious truth, yes. Lots get gets infected, but most of the healthy will get runny nose, cough, mild fever for few days and that's it. And what are you gonna, stay in complete isolation for these few days? Maybe, but then take few dozen milions of such people, and everyone will behave differently, be in different environments etc.
If that was the case then the lock downs would have only applied to old people. Not literally everyone.
@@sacb0y ah yes, just lock them down, because not like covid kills some young too, or like makes you fucking ill for most of the cases, and is totally not gonna spread as fuck thru malls, gyms, airports and alike, and go from young people in public to old people at homes.
Instead only locking down old people, just do effective precautions and countermeasures like some countries have done and gor rid off covid long time ago, in short time?
@@dr_birb Okay. We tried it your way. We closed the malls, gyms, etc. Then we had to do it again. How many times?
This video is a pretty great analysis of the raw numbers, but I think it's worth mentioning that a) a person can be infected with Covid more than once, at least twice from the alpha strain and then reinfected by any other strain, which rerolls the dice for them, and b), surviving covid isn't necessarily a "great, you're fine" deal. There are a slew of health conditions that you are far more likely to develop, or are a direct side effect of covid. I don't know the numbers, but in any case as much as covid's death toll is overhyped by the media i don't think that fear is unwarranted. Nobody wins if we let covid run rampant across the planet, both from its mutagenic potential and because it sets a bad precedent for what happens when we're met with a future potential threat.
everybody needs to read this.. fucking highlight this comment or some shit
Thank you omg
My thoughts exactly, Im afraid people will see this video and come out with the interpretation of "I shouldnt do anything to personally reduce the spread of this disease because its not a direct threat to me"
Yeah I was really hoping that he would talk more about the people who "survived" in his simulation. As it stands it's still a deceptive piece of media because of what it leaves out.
Covid had no recorded lasting health effects, what you're referring to is an outdated fear piece that "confused" covid with pre existing conditions.
This isn't a threat, unless you're going to panic over the common cold as well?
lost both my grandparents uncle and almost my father to covid. three of my friends lost their dads. kinda is scary.
Not when they had equal chances of being lost to the flu, as is the case for elderly people for the last 100 years in the U.S. It's heartbreaking but anecdotal luck does not grant you fearmongering powers.
Lost 2 of my best friends in car crashes, no driving isn't scary.

This is a very difficult topic to talk about, In my case we just came out of a 312 day lock down, It saved many peoples lives from covid, but also changed/ruined so many others, all sports clubs around have run out of money, same as small businesses, everyone was really behind on school work and antidepressants sold were at an all-time high. In my opinion, the lockdown here ruined more lives than it has saved
No. Thats just wrong. Disease spread exponentially and over the world. Think if every one in your country got covid but no one recieved any medical help at all. For many months.
Not just people suffering from cocid. People with deadly injury, rare disease, cancer, anything at all.
The danger with covid is that its infectious as fuck and without any drastic covid measre response, every one would have gotten it.
A fixed number of people can recieve medical help(in a country) and that number is negligeable compared to the size of a country.
So Basically, 99.99% of people wouldn't recieve any kind of medical help.
Just think about that.
@@poutineausyropderable7108 what ? XD
-> all evidence of infection points to people actually staying at home, because of the psychological damage done to people through fear mongering. it lowers people's immune system. and is therefor more vulnerable to viruses. netherlands report 3/4 infections are spread within homes.
-> yes, it is infectious. but locking people up is just throwing fuel to the fire. as I explained above.
-> you are pretending that if everyone didn't get locked up. everyone would have had covid already.
-> Countries like Florida and Sweden already demonstrated that this is a lie.
In the Netherlands there was a investigation (WOB) by an old executive from CBS. it turned out that in the Netherlands 100.000 years of people's lives were "saved".
however this lockdown also caused over 500.000 years of people's lives.
not to mention the horrible economic aftereffects and psychological damage done to people.
one day people are gonna be held responsible.
312 days? Are you from Australia?
I agree with your comment it ruined more lifes than saved

Either a quarter of grades audience don't like him anymore because he says its overhyped, or half of grades audience is disappointed that he said that it isn't.
@@thetruehat that ratio is encouraging though
probably both
@@thetruehat or alternatively, he doesn't pick a side and disapoints everyone
Complete trainwreck. Man never mentioned non-lethal side effects like permanent lung damage or the fact that covid cases still clog up hospitals and make other conditions deadlier by sapping supplies
I know I won't die of COVID because I'm young & healthy but I don't like the look of the shit that sticks around for some people after they've recovered, permanent loss of taste, lung scarring, "long covid" etc.
And everyone knows someone they love over 45 or 65, so I don't mind making a few sacrifices to my quality of life if it means helping to save those people.
