What do you consider a "denier" exactly? This is obviously the worst public health crisis in our lifetimes. But on an individual level, the majority of people infected with SARS-CoV-2 won't experience symptoms any worse than a bad flu. So I can understand why some people aren't concerned.


People aren't concerned if hundreds of thousands end up dying?

The majority of people weren't in WTC either...


Yes unfortunately there are many people who don't care about the suffering and death of others. But being callous doesn't make someone a "denier".


Then there are those who understand that the lockdown is also producing plenty of suffering (quite possibly very long-term suffering).

Those people are neither "deniers" nor "callous".
