2 percent? I believe the correct figure is 0.2 percent.

There seem to be different ways of calculating the mortality rate floating around. Simply dividing the deaths from Covid by total positive tests is around 1.5% to 2.0% in various states.

Current US Totals. 621,000 deaths/36,600,000 cases = 1.725%

How are calculating your percentage?

Correction.

Current US Totals. 621,000 deaths/36,600,000 cases = 1.697%.

The “Covid “ deaths are greatly exaggerated by a factor of at least 5 and probably more like 10. And the number of positive results doesn’t count people with a case so mild that they were never tested.

The problem with the numbers that you use is that the six hundred thousand deaths has been highly massage and is likely highly exaggerated. For example the normal 52 75,000 flu deaths each year disappeared. Because of the inaccuracy the test is probable that fifty to seventy-five thousand of that number were simply flu deaths. And then you can add into however many you believe were listed when they shouldn’t have been, in other words fraud.

Next, is the problem of how to define a case. We have a test with a 50% false positive and cannot accurately distinguish between the flu, cold virus, and covid. In addition to the fact that many of those so-called cases are merely positive test results. Which according to even our Lords and Masters at the CDC is not a case. So it’s likely none of these numbers are remotely accurate. Hell of a thing on which to base policy and trash an economy.
On the other hand a great thing for shredding the Constitution and our few remaining liberties.

I use between 10k to 40k Covid deaths. Never seen the 621k dead figure before. 620,000 deaths sounds like the total number of deaths in the USA/year.
