Even a staggering number of deaths such as a couple hundred thousand is still a small number of the world's population, as a couple million is a small number of the world's population. A lightning strike or a shark attack is a real danger, it's not a hoax, and it is potentially deadly, but for how long does each person that watched the movie Jaws or Twister (or saw footage of one of these incidents on the news) let the risk dictate their entire future life (whether they go outside or in the ocean again). A year and a half into the pandemic, you would think people would wake up. For how much longer do you take every order, follow every mandate, and fall into every line you are told to? When will people realize that the darkest hour comes when they allow it by dreaming or sleepwalking instead of waking up and fighting?
The coronavirus can kill you, so can lightning, wild animals, diseases, other people, car accidents, falls, and an endless list of things you can go through life letting fear dictate what you do and don't do. A life not lived seems worse than getting sick, life is worth losing. By living every day, you are endangering yourself and other people, when you drive to work, you are potentially endangering yourself and other people, you are part of the problem like everyone else is, and it's unavoidable.
There are two kinds of people in the way they think of the coronavirus, there are the ones that defend every mandate, rule, or law an entity such as the government or healthcare makes, and there are the ones that defend life as it always was before the pandemic. As with any divide in society, there are going to be people trying to play all sides of any divide, pretending to be friendly with all while not really being friendly with any.
He/she saw dollar signs in the coronavirus while everyone else saw either no choice but to follow orders, or a fight to keep from losing everything.
A surface matter for the power struggle beneath the surface between the people trying to keep pulling the strings of the rest of the population that get their strings pulled right into a testing line or a vaccine line (or a slaughterhouse line for that matter, since a slaughterhouse is where sheep go).
The coronavirus was something that would get people's attention and distract them from continuing to fight what they were really fighting.
