LOL, I rest my case. Like I said, this guy below has diabetes. It should be listed as the cause of death, because he might have remembered to take his parachute if not for diabetes.
So a photoshopped joke is the key to your reason for being upset? If you really want to discuss the photoshopped argument, what if he isn't actually skydiving, but his blood sugar is low and he fell out of the airplane while supporting skydivers?
Is CNN reporting that there are 15 gazillion deaths in the US at the moment from COVID-19? Is that the reason you are so upset? Honestly, I am staying as far away from the political and side-against-side arguments as I can. If that is what this is about, then just ignore science and argue about "your side". I am making actual points about epidemiology, not about one side or another side. I don't even know what the "sides" could possibly be in regard to this.
How about just respond to my question. What difference does it make? This isn't an engineering problem of wind load against a building. This is an epidemiological issue that uses rough numbers, statistics, and uncertainty. What difference does one death make if it is miscounted? What difference does 10 make? What difference does 100 make? What is the actual issue that you are upset about?
