after some 53 million people die around the world and another 157 million to 262 million people have severe organ damage, lung damage, etc.

of course, if we do not acquire long term immunity by surviving the virus... it will return over and over unless we find a vaccine.

These numbers assume 70% is needed for herd immunity, at least 4 to 6 months of immunity after infection, and a 1 percent fatality rate with a 3 percent severe infection rate with organ damage.

... because that's how his biographers described his dangerous stubborn behavior in 2016, and that's indeed how he behaves.

Edit: And it wouldn't surprise me AT ALL if he's still privately talking about injecting disinfectants, and his advisors are trying their hardest to convince him to not say it publicly.
