The headline is broadly defensible, but the qualifications matter. Effect sizes vary by population, the strongest claims rest on shorter trials, and credible voices push back on how it's typically framed.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.

Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
it's killed more people in a shorter amount of time than a regular flu virus but it's not an order of magnitude more deadly right you look at the case fatality rates in Germany they're between 0.3 0.4 it's it's on the same order of magnitude
