I'm going to need some kind of proof that driving accidents are as contagious as a respiratory disease that has caused a pandemic and killed 316,000 people in America alone in just 9 months. 

Hong Kong flu wasn't enough deaths either earlier, and it wasn't much different than covid as of now.

Vehicles didn't pop up everywhere all at once. They did spread, and have been for a century, yet we've only added safety measures to them over time, punished those who've broke laws, and have never restricted driving for everyone worldwide because of an increase in traffic deaths.

So how many deaths is too many when every last life matters? How long before something like covid becomes the norm and nobody cares anymore?

I don't honestly remember anyone other than the orange dipshit saying "even a single life lost to coronavirus is too much". That's just what he says when he wants to distract from the fact 300,000 died under his watch. I'm more in the camp that we do the restrictions that are recommended by the experts to try and limit it so 300,000 aren't 600,000. 

I'll put the question back to you, how many people would have to die before coronavirus is something that is worth quarantining for?
