Covid deaths in NYC 38,000 of a population of 7.5mm. .5 percent of the residents are dead from Covid! Ioannidis is frankly a jackass with his bogus statistics. 1mm dead out of a population of 330mm Americans. Thats .3 percent of the whole country. This creep talks about “the whole world” excluding those over 70, when the over 70 population in Europe and the US is double the percentage over 70 in the rest of the world. His arguments are so obviously stupid it is nauseating.
0.5 < 3.5. The threat was way overblown. If IFR was 3.5% it would have been much worse.
