It's been a pretty mild pandemic. What has been newsworthy about was the removal of freedom, not the number of dead people.

It's flu-like transmission - which is mostly through droplets. If you're not sneezing in the face of people you don't have high chances of passing it around

It's the 9th pandemic in human history in the number of deaths: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_epidemics#Major_epidem...

Looks like it's much lower than 9th population adjusted.
