1% is 70+ million, which is more people than die every year from every other cause.

And most other causes are not simultaneously sending several multiples of that number to the hospital, or spreading like wildfire in same hospital.

It is a very large number . That’s about the number of people who died during the Second World War (albeit a higher % of population). The human population only grows by that number every year . The world population will shrink if this levels are reached
