#8 Irrelevant. What matters is hospitalizations and excess deaths.

It what matters to you. To us, other things matter more.

I'm going to have to disagree with both theories.

Yes, lifestyle does make a difference; the more people in close proximity most definitely creates an environment for diseases to spread especially air communicable disease, second venereal disease.

On the difference, the disease itself and its infection, mortality rate is also in judgement.

Cholera, vs. West Nile, vs. chicken pox, vs. polio, etc. makes a difference.

We are seeing a rounding error of not ten, but factor of one hundred, of what was predicted.

Cross reference what you know with what was predicted.

If off by simple factor of 10, then there would be no hiding the bodies. The wails and lamentations would be deafening.
