For 2.5 years since the declaration of the Covid-19 pandemic, people have felt extreme fear. Reason, rationality, basic math and logic have taken a severe beating. This book documents the math murder in the mad fear largely manufactured by relentless propaganda in the media. It is meant for those who want to reflect on the planet-wide panic surrounding Covid-19, to examine if it was justified, to sift truth from propaganda, to learn how we can possibly prevent such mistakes in the future. It is especially meant for the next generation, who were affected least by the virus itself, yet affected most by the irrational measures in the name of public health. They must know how the adults on the planet abandoned reason for madness, rationality for fear, and basic math for obvious absurdity. Most parts are meant to be understandable with only a secondary-school or high-school mathematics background.
