With CoVid, lots of people were required to be tested once there was a positive symptomatic person in their sphere. As an example, if a restaurant had one case, all the other employees were given tests too, so even asymptomatic people who were positive were found and were quarantined for 2 weeks. This happened to someone I know, and he was never sick with anything, nor did anyone in his close circle get sick from him.

But wouldn't that actually LOWER the fatality rate?

By practicing "indiscriminate" testing, and counting even asymptomatic cases, you are boosting the denominator of the fraction. The number who die (the numerator) remains the same. So the overall percentage would, perforce, DROP.

Regards,

True, but the point is we are comparing apples and oranges.

With CoVid we changed pretty much every thing we’ve ever done with regards to how to handle disease outbreaks.

Every facet of life changed because Donald Trump was making deals better for the US than the old ones with China, and the CCP didn’t like it so they had to release their germ warfare that top bureaucrat Anthony Fauci signed off on with our tax money.
