Yet the numbers seem to be spiking up.
Still Trump’s fault. We need Truth rather than Facts.
If you take all who have died from corona, add that to those who have died from regular flu...
...is it the worst “flu season” ever?
I’m guessing: No.
There are lies, damned lies, and statistics.
The mathematics of statistics is only as good as the data collection. If there is incomplete data, either by not knowing what to look for, or deliberate exclusion, the computations are skewed and do not reflect reality.
Science, if practiced as it was intended to be, is NEVER settled. The collation of data is a primary tool in the building of scientific principles. Intellectual honesty is an absolute requisite. And even then, factors poorly understood get overlooked.
To put it into perspective, hospitals in Wuhan were overwhelmed with critically ill COVID-19 patients (that’s probably still the case) and it appears that is now happening in Italy.
Free hockey stick night at oldtimers hockey game at Michael Mann Arena. Henceforth it will be a felony punishable by death for harboring a septua or octo. Take them to your nearest GOV nursing home. BIG GOV mints will be handed out by nurse, Greta when they arrive. They/re BIG PHARMA approved.. She will check their voting records, their bank statements, their credit scores, their firearms purchases, etc,. etc. Anyone below our therapeutic levels...we will ask Greta to pull the plug on. It’s for your own good kids (inheritance) and ours (estate taxes). Eugenicist Bill Gates will text you the death certificate. We can ice them. It’s in the Constitution...er “Charter of Negative Liberties” according to that CONstitutional scholar, Barry. His credentials are impeccable. He won The Nobel POS Prize one year.

Quote from the VP/Task Force
I am personally more frightened by the mathematical ignorance in this country than by the germs.
What's worrisome is the HOSPITALIZATION rate. As we've seen in every single country so far health care systems cannot handle the amount of critically ill that results from the virus.
That's why all governments are expending so much time and money to slow or stop it.
So....we are not all going to die?
Old article. But relevant. Our statistics are not counting mild cases. I believe that at least 200 million Americans will get infected before 5h4 crisis ends.
