You reckon the population of Spain is 4,900,000,000 do you Mark? This is at least the third time I have seen you post these strange figures. I don’t understand your obsession with comparing Covid deaths to other causes either. There is no relationship whatsoever! And your comment “most people are in an age group that would have most likely died of some flu or other illness anyway” is, to say the least, distasteful.
27.000 fatalities represents 0,00055% of the Spanish population. On average 39.500 people die every month in Spain (based on 2018 figures). COVID-19: 9.000 per month if you count from when COVID-19 arrived in Spain. But, in this 9.000 most people are in an age group that would have most likely died of some flu or other illness anyway. It is all very weird what is happening.
