2 month lock down coming to you soon.

“undocumented infections”

[JonPreston]

Same as the seasonal flu, right?

[Oklahoma]

If this is true that means the death rate is much lower than currently calculated.

[wastoute]

A couple of new numbers that would be interesting is what are the number of ill people in the hospital right now and how many of them require ventilation? In the USA.

[alternatives?]

How sure are they it isn’t 88%?

[Pres Raygun]

Exactly. Now can we get back to business.

[HamiltonJay]

I’d say at least probably far more

[bigbob]

and the goal is to keep them walking around by themselves, away from other people, for a couple of weeks til we know they either have symptoms or not.

[dangus]

If true, the virus is less dealdy than the flu.

[Magic Fingers]

“Now can we get back to business.”

Wuhan got back to business after 6 weeks of lockdown.

[a fool in paradise]

so the number of infections is way higher and percentage of deaths way lower.

[lightman]

Also means that 86% of the people carrying DON’T GET SICK.

We need to study THEIR immune systems to find out why.

[willk]

It would be nice if they had a simple test that people who think they may have had the virus and recovered could see if they are carrying anti-bodies. My wife is blood type AB which is only 3.5% of the population and they are a universal plasma donors. There are experimental treatments that look very hopeful using plasma from people with the virus antibodies.

[zerosix]

I doubt that’s as high as that but could be, that’s why we’re being asked to “shelter in place!”

[billyboy15]

“same as seasonal flu, right?”

Of course it is.

[gibsonguy]

Exactly so the attempt to juice up more panic actually means nearly everyone who has it doesn’t even know it therefore...,

[Scrambler Bob]

86% of people with coronavirus are walking around undetected, study says
= = =

Note that this DOES NOT say:

86% of the people walking around have undetected coronavirus.

Which is what MSM would lead you to believe.

EEK EEK

[frogjerk]

Actually it makes it much less deadly and harmful than the seasonal flu
