Has the costs of the Coronavirus pandemic exceeded the cost of the subprime mortgage crisis?

628,000 dead in USA you do the math ! !

You must think this is a question lamenting the cost.

In reality, my thinking is we made such a big deal about the sub prime mortgage crisis, but this is a much more dire situation. Sure, the loss of life is horrific and makes these matters apples and oranges, but I figure it there’s an important take away: we could help the country invest in housing.

Maybe helping people get access to special mortgages could help our country survive this crisis in the long run.

@Tropical_Willie what is the math that relates to the question?

628,000 people didn’t die from sub-prime mortgage crisis.
