Oh.
So check the math 1% dead our of 65% of an 82 million population...533,000 deaths?
um, that’s nearly 60,000,000 people.
Well one of those Germans is my 94 year old adopted Great Aunt, so get your rear in gear, Angela!
If this goes on into the summer expect the EU to completely unravel.
Because she is fear mongering the people to scare them.
I think she’s wrong. I think it’s 57%. (See, I can pull numbers out of my ass, too.)
Is she still welcoming the free-flow of immigrants from Iran?
This all depends on how cooperative people in various countries are in taking measures to prevent the spread. If people are thoughtful about this one would think 60-70% is way too high. If enough people refuse to adapt then maybe it’s in the ballpark.
This will give hope to the local Ghouls who need a high death count in order to be right.
That would be a .14% death rate. Thats probably what you would expect from an epidemic of the common cold.
Germ many
I would wager my allowance* that we US Citizens will fare much, much better under the leadership of DJT than our German chums will under Murk-elle.
*(If I actually got an allowance)
.
So tell me again how wonderful the European Union is, with no border control, unfettered immigration, and free exchange of Pandemic virus?
That seems to also be the epidemiologist number for the entire globe.
Global population 7.8 billion
x2/3 = 5.2 billion
1% = 52 million deaths
Greta is pleased and says it is a good start.
South Korea can get it under control because its a peninsula. It has one land boarder which is heavily guarded. But when you say under control. You should not assume the virus won’t go through South Korea. It will. The only question is how fast. 60% of Germany, Korea and the US will get the virus. And if we can spread it out over several months we will all be just fine. Some people will not make it. But the reality is, people die every year. This year there will be a few more. In two years there will be fewer people dying. Over three years the death rate will be the same, just not very even year to year.
Depends on the number of your citizenry who hose their butts down after they take a dump...
2 out of 1400 is .1428% mortality rate.... Now obviously there could be more... The deviation by country or even region of the mortality rate just seems astonishing to me.... one would think the deviation between modern nations would be small... and less modern would be higher by comparison.. but it seems so far to be all over the map (no pun intended) as to where this thing is.....
Logically speaking, I can understand her thinking, but it just
doesn't seem to play out like that.
That's why I sometimes use the phrase, "The virus seems to get
tired and just go away."
That's about the only explanation for it.
You know those grade "B" science fiction movies where a person
gets cloned, and the clone is much younger, and then the clock
of the donor winds down, and the clone ages rapidly and dies long
before his physical age would merit?
Maybe with all the reproducing of the virus there is out there,
they all have the time clock of the original virus.
Perhaps it's clock just runs out.
