Communication begin with commun vocabulary. 

''A pandemic is an epidemic of an infectious disease that has spread across a large region, for instance multiple continents or worldwide, affecting a substantial number of people. A widespread endemic disease with a stable number of infected people is not a pandemic. Widespread endemic diseases with a stable number of infected people such as recurrences of seasonal influenza are generally excluded as they occur simultaneously in large regions of the globe rather than being spread worldwide.''

Asking that we need as much deaths as the 1918 spanish flu for calling a desease a pandemic is pointless. Hundred years later we have much more skills to control deseases, we can  prevent them with better communications and apply measure faster against it. But it's still a pandemy. By chance, we don't have people dying in the streets, and, at least in our western countries, people generally recieve treatments.

You refer to science, but there were always scientists on all sides; even the Nazis had theirs scientists and doctors on their side. We could always find scientists on the negation side, scientists with libertarian roots. But they are only few.

The most important is where are the scientists in charge with acces to the specialized datas. Where stand the public healths specialists ? Not only in our country but worldwide. 

Even Trump hired a scientist as Covid adviser, an adviser with neuroradiologist experience, zero in infectuous diseases; Scott Atlas. He echoed opinions on the side of the President on FOX news. Trump hired him. He resigned after 5 months of a clear fiasco tenure. He was against a lot of measures for political reasons and we know now that the US were hit hard in the second wave and the US numbers are amongts the worst in the world. 

The measure could have been softer, diverses, differently targeted. There is a lot of opinions about this, and that's OK. But saying that's nothing happened, only a big flu is contrary to the facts.
