What this article is about, from the author:
My goal today is, first, to present the facts about how deadly COVID-19 actually is; second, to present the facts about who is at risk from COVID; third, to present some facts about how deadly the widespread lockdowns have been; and fourth, to recommend a shift in public policy.
COVID is going to go away very soon, if Biden wins.
I have had hangovers worse than COVID. It's overrated, overstated, overblown, and simply a tool to destroy Trump and his supporters.
“In early March, the case fatality rate in the U.S. was roughly three percent—nearly three out of every hundred people who were identified as “cases” of COVID in early March died from it.”
Pure utter BS. You can’t use this type of analysis on anything and get a proven result.
There’s ~331,000,000 people in the US. How many died is a percentage of that number not the number tested.
Number tested is irrelevant because of the false positives and false negatives not to mention people getting multiple tests and the biggest factor is those not tested.
COVID-19 mortality rate is insignificant when you look at many other diseases and mortality rate facts yet somehow COVID-19 is a pandemic... no more so than any other cold or flu.
there is no more covid- biden declared himself president and it went away
Article has no credibility. They readily admit that CASE Fatality Rate (as opposed to the bogus INFECTION Fatality Rate which “assumes” the denominator number) was 3% in March. Yep, it was. But then, the author apparently either doesn’t know how to look up publicly available data or willfilly ignores it, cuz..
Current US Deaths: 243,343
Current US Cases: 10,196,998
See: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/
Therefore, CASE Fatality Rate is still 2.38%.
Yeah, I know many Freepers think the death numbers are BS or that a large portion has co-morbidities, or that the moon had to be in the 3rd quadrant of Jupiter when any of those “deaths” were reported..or any number of reasons to try to explain the numbers away. But it doesn’t change the reality of what the CASE Fatality Rate currently is. And here in my own home state, it’s 3.4%. Hardly encouraging if you’re confirmed as being COVID positive.
