And then there were none

Just so it is officially official, there are now no data collection centers reporting less than 1 million deaths in the U.S. from SARS-CoV-2 infection. And of course, they didn't just say 1 million was the maximum, let's stop counting because there won't be any more cases. Sadly, over the next few years, although there will still be websites devoted to tallying deaths, they won't be taken seriously, because we as a society have stopped counting, and many states will now just treat this the same as deaths from electrocution or drowning in bowls of pudding, a statistics to put on a PSA, like "one death every 12 seconds" which no one pays attention to or worries over, because what can you do about it? It's not like we could have prevented any of these deaths by a widely available, safe and free vaccine, or by washing our hands and wearing surgical masks.
