There are also millions who will have related health problems for the rest of their lives, perhaps you don't mind being one of them.
Note to other posters. Sorry for feeding a troll, I lost control.
Don't apologize.

It really isn't important at least to me what the percentage the same with any other disease, cancer, Hiv or just being in the wrong place at the right time you don't want to be that 1% if you were I know you wouldn't be singing the tune you singing now! I know I wouldn't get any argument for any of the 99.95% who got it in the beginning.
I just found out today a former co-worker I would guess age 55 been in hospital in a coma since the middle of November didn't make it.

Most guys need a test to find out they have chlamydia. Not deadly but spreadable and bad enough for some.

Medical professionals don't have a say, they've got to keep on doing their jobs and shut up. Most of the times the ones that tried to stand up against that tyranny had lawsuits filed against them, had their voices shut down on the mainstream media and on social media apps also and many had been fired from the hospital they were working in.
Remember the young good looking Wuhan Dr. Who started speaking the truth. He died of Covid. MeThinks he was murdered.

The machines to run the tests through have to be bought. Electricity to run those machines have to be paid for. The maintenance on the machines have to be paid for. Etc. Non-profits still require capital to function.

What about those same costs in poorer countries. Yet they only have to pay 1/10th of the cost.
Its not a scam, its capitalism. The industrialists in richer countries need a bigger slice of the pie for themselves as it is essential for them to maintain a lifestyle that is befitting their station in life.

Blah blah blah. It is called price discrimination. Do you go to London and see a Big Mac cost $8 and say it is a scam because in Manila a Big Mac costs only $2?

The tests that cost a dollar to make can be self administered and are 99% accurate. A small fraction of the latest covid stimulus could make widespread testing a reality.

Some companies will profit wildly from the virus. That doesn't mean we should stop testing. That doesn't make it hoax.
