It seems that epidemiological mathematics showing causative results is not Mx Perez’ strong suit.
Or, even hxx weakest suit.
Universe: COVID positive = 5671984
Sub-group: deaths, from COVID positive = 175617
Rate, Deaths per COVID positive = 175617/5671984 = 0.0306
See?
Apples and oranges.
The death RATE (in the above example) is 0.031.
This is _NOT_ a percentage.
Our wise latinx is comparing a percentage to a rate and failing by a factor of 100.
That was my sense of it.
Thank you.
