1. The survival rate of “Covid” is over 99%. Government medical experts went out of their way to underline, from the beginning of the pandemic, that the vast majority of the population are not in any danger from Covid.

The survival rate of “Covid” is over 99%.

This question isn't necessarily directed to you, but its an issue that has been puzzling me today, and your's is the first post I've seen today that has made this common claim.

I've heard that the 'correct' statistics from the CDC is that those less that 65 years in age have a 99.5% recovery rate from CoVid (and those over 80 years old have a much lower rate).
My question: How do they know? Or, what is the basis of this calculation?
The death rates (the numerator) are inflated by around 10X (based on a redefinition of the cause of the death during the CoVid era. I.e., around 90% of the reported CoVid deaths were really due to something else - and they had CoVid, or were tested as positive for Covid).
And the CoVid PCR tests were also overly sensitive. So the CoVid case rate (the denominator) is also grossly inflated.
So maybe both the numerator and denominator are inflated by 10X, and the inflation washes out (that would be a 'happy accident'), but given the sloppiness in both of these numbers - I don't think we really know the recovery rate.
Do you, or anyone else, know how this number is calculated (without relying on inflated PCR case numbers and inflated death rates that were tangentially, but not directly, related to CoVid)?
