MEV-1 infected everyone and killed about 20%.
COVID-19 infected a small number and killed 0.1% of them.
You're comparing a shotgun to a bottle rocket, but we do know this NOW, in the future of mid-2021. Even in places where it raged out of control, St Louis County for example, as I live nearby: 14 months into the pandemic, population 1,000,000+, total positive cases all-time, only 100k. The entire course of the disease never even touched 90% of people.
Sure, you can say those are only the positive test numbers, we didn't test everyone, but, we tested everyone who died, so if they died negative, it wasn't the virus.
People just have to come to terms COVID-19 was WAY scarier than we thought, and by that I mean it was MILD and we reacted to it INSANELY, to the point we might have killed the entire world economy for a generation, the effects of which could kill millions more than COVID was ever capable of. Suicide and crime rates have quadrupled or more in many or even most places. Murder is at record highs. The real virus, FEAR, caused us to overreact and almost kill the host.
