The Staggering Human Toll Of COVID-19

US COVID-19 death toll: 40,189


To put that into context, remember the Benghazi embassy massacre, and then multiply the number of American citizens killed by ten thousand. Think about that. Imagine if the Benghazi massacre had happened not just once, but over and over again, ten thousand times. Incomprehensible? If that had really happened, US casualties would still be lower than the number killed thus far by COVID-19, and the virus is still raging.


If you were upset about Benghazi, I understand. If you thought that all of those congressional inquiries were necessary, I understand. But if you’re not a whole lot more outraged by Donald Trump’s handling of the coronavirus than you were about Hillary Clinton’s handling of Benghazi, then you need to check your moral compass, because it’s leading you way off course.
