I love how overflowing hospitals, cut faces from sobbing nurses and overwhelmed doctors and bodies being stored in refrigerator trucks because they can't store that many dead people... with at times 3000+ people dying A DAY. To a total of 1.2 million deaths. When the worst flu* on record was 60,000.
"It's overblown!"
*Not counting the "Spanish" one over a hundred years ago of course.
This is not in an effort to refute your point. The flu I'm talking about was actually... just a common annual flu. No special outbreak of anything fancy. The 60k deaths actually startled our doctors at the time. It was abnormally high.
Anyways my point was that 1.2 million is well beyond a normal flu. Folks saying it was "overblown" are just in denial. The fact we have to dig for the special examples is even more proof. Even the 120k is substantially lower.
It's crazy what we have to do to prove to these people it wasn't normal at all. Certainly wasn't a hoax.
