That's the whole idea: to thin the herd.

COVID-19 deaths in U.S. surpass 1918 Spanish Flu pandemic​

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic is most likely the deadliest outbreak in recent American history, exceeding the estimated deaths from the 1918 influenza pandemic.


Caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the pandemic has now infected over 229 million individuals worldwide. Of these, more than 4.7 million people have perished from the virus.


In the United States, more than 42.4 million people have been infected with SARS-CoV-2. The death toll in the country has now topped 676,000. Over the past 28 days, the U.S. has reported 4.25 million new infections and over 45,000 deaths.

The 1918 Spanish Influenza Pandemic​

In 1918, the Spanish flu pandemic was the first of three flu pandemics caused by the H1N1 influenza A virus; the most recent one was the 2009 swine flu pandemic. H1N1 was also responsible for the Russian flu of 1977.


The 1918 influenza pandemic spread throughout the world between 1918 and 1920 infected an estimated 500 million people or one-third of the world’s population. The death toll reached an estimated 50 million across the globe. In the U.S., around 675,000 people were estimated to have died from the Spanish flu.

The whole idea is to destroy the old economy and build a new one on top.

 

[Hypocrite-The]

Actually deaths are a good thing as the surplus population needs to be culled. The ChiCons were doing the right thing n till date the death rates in ChiCons land is still unknown

Very misleading because the devil is in the details and the details are buried in the article. Another classic example of dishonest journalism where a screaming headline is a big lie.

In the middle of the article it says :

Death toll comparison
Health experts, however, reiterate to consider population when tackling outbreaks. For example, in 1918, the U.S. population was less than a third of today, with about 103 million people living in the U.S. before the 1920s.

At present, around 330 million people reside in the U.S. In a nutshell, the 1918 Spanish flu killed about 1 in every 150 U.S. residents, while the COVID-19 pandemic has killed 1 in 500 residents.

With the present US population Covid would have to kill 2.2 MILLION in order to be comparable to the Spanish flu in lethality.

That's simple present tense which assumes that the situation (spread/deaths) is ongoing and will continue at the same rate in the foreseeable future.

The video is summing up what has happened so far hence past tense is appropriate.

Or we can use "will have killed" ie present perfect tense.

Just saying.
