A poll that was recently on the news claimed that 20 percent of Americans know someone who has died of corona. Didn't sound right to me so I divided the population of 328,000,000 by 235,000 deaths and came up with a number that's so outrageous that I question my method. On average the deceased would have had over 1300 acquaintances for the 20% to hold true.
