Poverty deaths vs covid

Some estimates of 850 MILLION single use syringes for the u.s.ofa. alone IF further vaccinations are not needed due to new covid strains, over 3 BILLION single use syringes world-wide already dispatched to landfill - or oceanfill - thus far with less than 13.9% of the world's people already vaccinated for a virus that has a 2% fatality rate of those infected?

The worldwide fatality rate of poverty killing children is 22,000 children A DAY die from poverty. That's over EIGHT MILLION young lives a year. Period.

With 2.2 billion children in our great world ONE BILLION live in poverty. That's almost 50%. And that's just the children: their mothers also suffer and die from poverty.

But we care sooooooo deeply about a virus that has a 2% fatality rate and not a condition of poverty that is intentionally created and fostered by our western lifestyles that threatens 50% of our children?

And don't give one flying fuck about the impact on Mother Earth of billions if not trillions of single-use plastic vials on the future life of our planet - let alone masks and gloves and chemicals and medical waste in the development and delivery of those vials, etc?.

I really don't get our priorities. No, what I really don't get is how we allow these priorities to continue.
