I don't get it, is this showing all the stuff that makes corona virus worst?

This is a logical fallacy.
A is bad.
B is also bad.
A is worse.
Therefore B should be ignored.

This is a misinterpretation.

A is bad and has been bad forever and nobody cares.

B is also bad but is new and everybody is panicking.

Therefore you should have some sense and not suddenly start giving a shit about your health only when CNN headlines start telling you to be afraid..

Tobacco or alcohol mortality will not randomly increase x1000 if we ignore it. Taleb is an imbecile.

Corona virus yesterday killed 1000 people in America alone. This makes it deadlier than:

Accidents (465 deaths per day)
All other respiratory diseases (438 deaths per day)
Stroke (401 deaths per day)
Alzheimers (332 deaths per day)
Diabetes (228 deaths per day)
Flu and Pneumonia (152 deaths per day)
Nephritis (138 deaths per day)
and suicide (129 deaths per day)

It is only beaten by Cancer (1641 deaths per day)
and Heart disease (1773 deaths per day)

to become the third most fatal thing in the US. It also hasn't even remotely peaked. It will pass Heart disease by the beginning of next week and you fucking idiots still think it's nothing.

Neither is diabetes, stroke, or suicide. Covid-19 is already 10x deadlier than anything you can catch (flu and pneumonia) and it's just hitting the inner states. Coronavirus against ALL OTHER WAYS TO DIE is worse than all of them.

I think the fallacy is false equivalence.
In the cases of smoking, drinking, and over-eating, the actor is the victim.
In the case of being irresponsible and infecting someone else, the victim is different from the actor.
In general, our society is fine with people exposing themselves to risk.
It is not fine with people exposing others to risk.
