Given that people before were saying the death rate was 2-5%, yes, it is a good thing.
I find it really strange that people in this thread are trying to be mad about a low death rate...
YT's spam filter is notoriously terrible so I don't think this is far out there.
This statement reflects the writers' large ego, not reality. It's a shame how this point of view is prominent in the scientific community. I've seen similar rude statements from academic scientists who say that working in R&D at a corporation isn't "real science".
I don't think this is true. Take all the non-tech companies that rely on software and hire tons of engineers, such as insurance and banking.
Ironic, because that's exactly what your comment is.
Literally could be anything. Militaries around the world run navigation (i.e. GPS) and weather satellites.
Yeah, and isn't taking steps to oppose them every step of the way normal as well? We (america & allies) have to protect our interests.
Except the economy was impacted, since manufacturing in China was slowed during the first quarter.
