Tedros, head of the WHO, made a statement about needing to be united and fight the virus instead of scoring political points:
[quote]"Without national unity and global solidarity, trust us, the worst is yet ahead of us," he said during a press briefing.
...
"The cracks between people and the cracks between parties is fueling it," he said. "Don't use this virus as an opportunity to fight against each other or score political points. It's dangerous. It's like playing with fire."
As of Monday, the virus had infected almost 2.5 million people in more than 200 countries and territories and killed at least 166,000 people, according to data collected by Johns Hopkins University.[quote]
I largely agree with him but the infected are likely far more than just 2.5 million.
WHO warns that few have developed antibodies to Covid-19
Herd immunity hopes dealt blow by report suggesting only 2%-3% of people have been infected
Only a tiny proportion of the global population – maybe as few as 2% or 3% – appear to have antibodies in the blood showing they have been infected with Covid-19, according to the World Health Organization, a finding that bodes ill for hopes that herd immunity will ease the exit from lockdown.
“Easing restrictions is not the end of the epidemic in any country,” said WHO director-general Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus at a media briefing in Geneva on Monday. “So-called lockdowns can help to take the heat out of a country’s epidemic.”
ut serological testing to find out how large a proportion of the population have had the infection and developed antibodies to it – which it is hoped will mean they have some level of immunity – suggests that the numbers are low. -snip
That goes against the belief that over 60% of people have already been infected and recovered.

Yes. The conservative voters are doing at rates that they've always died at or even lower rates.
I'm reading tinfoil hat ideas from both sides of this argument:
The virus is a trick to try and save more old people's lives so that they have more voters in 2020 to vote for Trump and conservatives in other countries. Forcing better focus and care on the elderly is the only real problem with this virus.
And...
This virus was made specifically to kill old people to diminish the elderly population so that they cannot vote conservatively in 2020.
Both of those are testable. If the elderly are dying at lower rates than they were in the past, this virus is a hoax and there is merit to the tinfoil hatters saying this is a trick to save as many old people as possible.
If the elderly are dying at higher rates than in the past, there is merit to the argument that the virus exists to diminish the elderly population to lower the conservative vote.
Both ideas are still tin-foil hatty since these things require you to think the virus was made on purpose for a reason.

Oh man, this comment, too. Has the tin foil hatters up in a tizzy.
They think it is because 'the press' already got vaccinated because the virus is man made and he accidentally bragged about his SARS-CoV-2 vaccine on a hot mic.
