You might have heard Morph, I don't focus to much on numbers as we will never know and knowing doesn't change the situation. Best to focus on trying to keep safe and helping others when possible to get through this Pandemic.

So, in the O.P. I mentioned the Asian Murder Hornets.
The latest is that they also "spit venom", as well.

Not even close, officially, but as lots of people only have minor symptoms the actual number could be higher. Over 99% of the infected are fine so it's not any apocalyptic disease that matches an end times. Back in the 1340s, we had around 1/3 of people in Europe (no proper documentation of it in Asia and Africa; number possibly similar) dying from the ''Black Death'' (plague). It came back again and again, though more locally contained.

You would expect that in the ''end times'' you would have something similar, or worse? Though, the response to it (lockdowns) could have consequences of incredible proportions.
