CDC Releases Results from Seroprevalence Survey
Wilton's Hamlethub ^ | 26 June 2020 | Written by State of CT

Posted on 07/05/2020 5:32:28 PM PDT by Grandpa Drudge

Today, Governor Ned Lamont reported CDC results from the first six sites of large-scale seroprevalence surveys, including Connecticut.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention today released the results of the first six sites involved in its large-scale seroprevalence survey, which includes Connecticut. The federal agency partnered with commercial laboratories for the survey that tested de-identified clinical blood specimens for SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. The survey included people who had blood specimens tested for reasons unrelated to COVID-19, such as for a routine or sick visit blood test by commercial laboratories in participating areas.

In Connecticut, the survey estimates that 4.94 percent of the state’s population was positive for antibodies, after age and sex-standardizing to census data and after accounting for the sensitivity and specificity of the CDC assay used. The samples were collected between April 26 and May 3. Connecticut had the second-highest seroprevalence in the first round of the study. Blood samples from approximately 1,400 people in the state were tested.

More data on the survey can be found on the CDC’s website:

” Highly effective vaccines for common cold viruses like coronavirus are still decades in the future, if ever. “

A reasonable position, but maybe the covid hysteria will drive an RNA virus ‘cure’?
Would be great. Improvement of lifetimes would show in just a year.

If the flu was new we’d be scared out of our minds. A terrible disease.

I miss-stated that "The only current Serology Surveillance surveys not reported here are San Francisco and South Florida, neither of which would be of much relevance to the USA as a whole."

Correction: The only current Serology Surveillance surveys not reported here are San Francisco, Minnesota, and Louisiana. No data for these 3 surveys (that I am aware of) has been published to date, and the relevance to the USA as a whole is not clear.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Oh, they will drive a “Cure” all right.

A “Cure” is worth Trillions.

An all powerful alliance between big tech/big pharma/
big government/Deep State/CDC/TSA Tracer Army/ and the WHO
can do all KINDS of amazing things with...

A “Cure”.

The flames of the hysteria are being fanned to drive
that outcome.
(And no, the first several “Cures” they push, won’t.)

The first Cure Our President pushed, HCQ, does work.

Fancy that.

Re: “Corona RNA”

Thanks for clearing that up. I thought PRC only worked with DNA.

I assume the scarce antibody data is deliberate.

When the number of cases goes up, the Case Fatality Rate goes down.

I follow the issue of fatalities closely.

In my opinion, if the CDC counted influenza fatalities the same way they count COVID-19 fatalities, we would have more flu deaths than COVID deaths.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I hope all those that are desperately attempting to scare
us all out of our minds stop and think how “Biblical”
this is all beginning to look.

We have half our Representatives believing their own,
quite mad, lies.

We have half a dozen Governors who are EACH responsible
for more deaths than ALL of the Jihadis of late.

I would not take a bet right now, that the first “Cures”
that all this madness comes up with after killing
even more innocents by hiding the truth about HCQ,
along with their mission of mandatory masking,
turn out to become the prophesied biblical plagues.

OK, now that some seroprevalence survey results are finally available (even though they are at least two months out of date (and not really accurately applicable to current up to date Covid-19 tracking) I'll display how to use them anyway.

New York (note Metro area not necessarily same as state)

total cases = 422,268 total deaths= 32,248 4/01/2020 seroprevalence survey adjustment 12X higher AdjTotCases = 5,067,216 cases

32.248 deaths / 5,067,216 = CFR (case Fatality Rate) 0.63%

Connecticut

total cases = 46,717 total deaths= 4,335 5/03/2020 seroprevalence survey adjustment 6X higher AdjTotCases = 280,302 cases

4,335 deaths / 280,302 = CFR (case Fatality Rate) 1.54%

Western Washington State (note western area not necessarily same as state)

total cases = 36708 total deaths= 1,359 4/01/2020 seroprevalence survey adjustment 11X higher AdjTotCases = 403,788 cases

1,359 deaths / 403,788 = CFR (case Fatality Rate) 0.33%

South Florida (note South Florida not necessarily same as state)

total cases = 200,111 total deaths= 3,732 4/10/2020 seroprevalence survey adjustment 11X higher AdjTotCases = 2,201,221 cases

3,732 deaths / 280,302 = CFR (case Fatality Rate) 0.16%

Missouri

total cases = 24,444 total deaths= 1,074 4/26/2020 seroprevalence survey adjustment 24X higher AdjTotCases = 586,656 cases

1,074 deaths / 586,656 = CFR (case Fatality Rate) 0.18%

Utah

total cases =24,952 total deaths= 184 5/03/2020 seroprevalence survey adjustment 11X higher AdjTotCases = 274,472 cases

184 deaths / 274,472 = CFR (case Fatality Rate) 0.07%

I never bother to argue with fools.
Most people can recognize the horror of FLU.

Yes, it’s optimistic of me to hope an RNA vaccine comes from the hysteria over covid. But there’s a LOT of money on the table.

Correction: The Florida stats should read:

South Florida (note South Florida not necessarily same as state)

total cases = 200,111 total deaths= 3,732 4/10/2020 seroprevalence survey adjustment 11X higher AdjTotCases = 2,201,221 cases

3,732 deaths / 2,201,221 = CFR (case Fatality Rate) 0.17%

Already pointed out.

What’s YOUR cut?
