So. Hi new people! Apparently, we're gonna talk about sex. Like physical sex! Because... there's some confusion.
First, sex defined: We're talking physical sex here, not gender. Body parts, hormones, and genetics (and more).
BLUF: BIOLOGICAL sex is a spectrum

The number of Americans dead so far from this pandemic. And countless more with lasting issues.
We haven't even finished summer yet. We haven't tried to send kids back to school (many without mask requirements) or entered flu season, "Oh, it's just a seasonal cold/flu"
6 days ago these states were labeled "red zone" with rapidly rising infection rates. What have they done since? Mostly... not much, if anything.

"More people die of the flu every year, you're just fear mongering"
No, more than 140k Americans do NOT die from flu a year. No matter how you calculate them.
2017-18 was the worst recent year and the CALCULATED deaths are still only around 61k tops.
The flu doesn't require activation of both Active and Reserve components of the military to support hospitals and set up field hospitals. This is NOT normal, at all.
Yet another periodic reminder that there's a ton more than "death" and "fine" when it comes to COVID-19. The longer this goes on, the more we learn that a lot of "mild" cases aren't mild and leave lasting effects, damage, and problems. cnn.com/2020/07/18/health/lo…
