Good job not mentioning at all the AGE of the people who DIED. I'm sure that couldn't be useful at all whatsoever to determine our individual risk.
There's just no making any of you happy, is there? Half the time you don't want them to display the ages because it's "Fear Mongering," and they don't have the data on hand for the number of flu deaths by age. The other half the time, they're incompetent for not posting ages of those who have died.
If you want a breakdown of just how bad this Rona Spike is, check out the S.A. Surveillance page.
There you will find that a whopping eighty-one (81) people have died from COVID-Related issues in the past month. That's less than 3 per day in a metro area of over 2 million people.
Cases MAY be spiking, but fatalities have been effectively flat since about October.

Merry Christmas.
