"Add to that that C-19 is way more infectious & it's easy to see how it's way worse than the flu & lockdowns were justified.
There have been many reports saying the death tolls have been under counted, not only in the USA but in China, Iran, India, etc.
...What is obviously clear is:
1) serious vehicular accidents & deaths are way way down
2) flu deaths & serious complications have decreased tremendously
3) C-19 ill health & deaths are far less due to the lockdowns
4) likewise probably other communicable diseases (e.g. tuberculosis, HIV) have been greatly reduced by the extreme safety measures in place
5) street crimes have probably been highly reduced.
6) families have been able to spend more time together enjoying each others company while free from the slavery of that 4 letter word "work" that the vast majority hate. Giving more time for quality of life activities like sex & various entertainments.
7) abortions (child murder) are probably down.

"Obesity 'increases risks from Covid-19' "
"Being obese doubles the risk of hospital treatment from Covid-19 and increases the risk of dying by nearly 50%, a global analysis suggests.
Obesity makes other diseases such as diabetes and high blood pressure more likely, the US researchers say.
Along with a weakened immune system, this can make these individuals more vulnerable to severe Covid-19.
They also warn a vaccine against coronavirus could be less effective in obese people.
This is based on the fact that flu vaccines don't work as well in those with a body mass index (BMI) of over 30.
...With obesity rising around the world and 20% of people overweight or obese in nearly all countries - in the UK and US it's close to 66% - understanding how treatments and vaccines work in this group is "critical", the research says.
