Data Suggests REAL Coronavirus Death Rate In L.A. Is 0.18%, And 0.89% In NY

Results of antibody survey last week in Los Angeles suggested that the death rate from the virus could be as low as 0.18% of COVID-19 patients.

The survey found that the number of infections in the city was 330,000, much higher than the 7,994 infections city officials reported on April 20.

Meanwhile, an antibody study last week in New York City found that 1 in 5 (21.2%) of residents have already been infected with the coronavirus, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said on Thursday.

There are 8.5 million people in New York City, so that means 1,802,000 residents in New York City have had the virus. At the time, there were 16,249 deaths in the city attributed to COVID-19, which means the death rate was just That means the death rate in the city was .89% at the time.

The study tested 3,000 New York residents across the state — at grocery and big-box stores — for antibodies that indicate someone has already had the virus.

“What we found so far is that the statewide number is 13.9% tested positive for having the antibodies,” Cuomo said. “What does it mean? They were infected three weeks ago and four weeks ago and five weeks ago or six weeks ago,” Cuomo. said. “They have the virus and they developed the antibodies and they are recovered.”

“What you do in a place with 21% is very different,” he said. “The facts dictate the action.”

The Daily Mail reported on Monday that “Coronavirus may kill 70 times fewer patients than official UK death figures suggest, studies have shown.

" Britain has one of the worst COVID-19 testing records, meaning a frightening 13 per cent of diagnosed patients in the UK die from the disease. But this is considerably higher than the real death rate because it does not take into account the thousands of infected people who had mild symptoms."

The Mail said a similar fatality rate — 0.19% — was found in a study of residents in Helsinki, Finland.

"The samples were all taken from the region of Uusima, which is home to approximately 1.7 million people – most of whom live in the capital of Helsinki. It found that 3.4 per cent of the population had antibodies. At the time, only 2,000 cases had been confirmed by laboratory tests. But 3.4 per of the region’s population would equate to around 57,800."

Excessive use of dangerous ventilators in order to make government cash, in addition to other types of fraud in the reporting, are responsible for the higher NY death rate. Ventilators kill.

Do people who are currently infected but who are asymtomatic test positive on an antibody test?

I suspect that almost ALL deaths in NY are recorded as Corona 19, because it pays better.

Cuomo sent cv19 patients to nursing homes instead of the alternatives available and the deaths skyrocketed!

Yes, after they have had the time to shed the virus. It depends on how many weeks they have been positive for the virus. With enough antibodies, they should eventually become negative for Covid-19.

“There are 8.5 million people in New York City, so that means 1,802,000 residents in New York City have had the virus. “

Assuming that the sample was completely random, covering all parts of the city, and there are no false positives.

Word from the streets of NY is that deaths from the virus are being over-reported. Heart attack victims are now Wuhan victims, etc. A Wuhan victim reaps the city more money.
Also, crime is being reported as down. Not the case. Instead of arresting and booking, criminals are being released. NYC cops with enough time, are putting in their retirement papers in large numbers due to the lack of support for the job they are supposed to be doing.

My theory is that New York got hit bad due to the housing situation there. It has an extreme population density and housing (and all other rentals) are insanely expensive. There are also a LOT of rent controlled (i.e. artificially cheap) hovels grandfathered to older people for years, and so they end up having multiple generations living in the same unit because that’s all they can afford. Then the subways remain open, and it’s very difficult to actually keep you distance from other people. And the city is notoriously dirty to begin with. The whole place is a petri dish. Once one person in a multi-generation apartment gets the ChiCom Beer Flu, they all get it, and Grandma and Grandpa end up dying.

Basically, it’s because NY is a s***hole. As is typical of places run by democraps.

The REAL flu death rate is 0.025% since 3/4 of all who get it show no symptoms. These figures make CV 4.5x more deadly in CA and 35.6x more deadly in NY. Others’ calculations put it in the same range at 30x. This engineered bioweapon is NOT the flu.

Could someone explain to me why a man in NYC who gets the virus is 5 times more likely to die than his twin brother who also has the virus but lives in California?

The difference in the California and New York Data points is 100% due to differences in the measurement and extrapolation of the antibody surveys.

While you are way, way more likely to become infected with the Coronavirus in New York, California and NY death rates are the same.

People need to stop equating death rates with infection rates. They are totally unrelated.

Symptomatic people are dying at 1%. If four times as many were asymptomatic, that would be 0.25%, not 0.025%.

Part of this is due to healthcare professionals told to classify possible cases as COVID-19 so they get more money.
