This means it’s that less deadly.
If so its a good thing.
So the death rate is lower....how do we know people die from the virus and not from something else...????????
These experts are not every expert in my opinion...
After the first month they should have changed course...
And if the infection rate is as much as 17 TIMES higher than what they thought, what does that do to the old “case fatality rate”, eh? I’d say it puts it somewhere between a cold and a skinned knee.
Oops! 7 times, not 17. My point remains, however...
What this actually means is that the virus is far less deadly than previously thought. There could be up to one third of the US population who have/have had the virus. This put the death rate at well under 1%.
Planscamdemic indeed.
The masks and bandannas that I see most people wearing are about as useful as a dog-chewed condom.
Okay.
So then the COVID-19 death rate is exponentially lower.
And we are exponentially closer to herd immunity.
All this talk about the death rate in the comments misses the real point: herd immunity.
As I wrote elsewhere, some of the states that avoided the worst of the lockdowns, especially the Dakotas, might already be approaching herd immunity, and their recent case counts (which are declining) bear that out (although N. Dakota today had a significant one-day spike in cases.)
I’ve been assuming 5x and here’s the CDC saying it could be 7x. Both Dakotas have total cases at one in every ten residents, so if it’s 7x then 70% of their population has had it, and it’s fair to assume that virtually everyone except the severely secluded have already been exposed. It will be interesting watching their progress over the next month.
Meanwhile the locked-down states are still seeing rising case loads, indicating that all their draconian measures did is prolong the inevitable while bankrupting their small businesses.
Eggs ackley! My goal is to stay out of the petri dish called “hospital.” So, I’m expecting my shipment of HCQ-Az-Zn any day now.
“My goal is to stay out of the petri dish called “hospital.”
A niece of this guy lives about an hour away from this man.
She is a licensed EMT and soon will be an RN.
When the wife of this guy complained to the niece, the niece told her that being treated in the ambulance instead of an ICU may have saved his life.
This young woman sees combo/critical care RN/EMT riding with critical patients doing EMT and aiding re diagnosis with their training and new electronic/mobile diagnosis gear in communication with doctors at the receiving hospital making a diagnosis before the patient arrives in an ambulance.
Then caring for the patient on arrival or sent to an appropriate section of that hospital for quick/appropriate care.
I think the testing for covid was a mistake especially the quick test. Tests are not reliable and often show false positives. This just keeps feeding the hysteria.
What if the public was told to invest in a thermometer so that they could take their temperatures if they believed they have a fever? What if the media taught us how to identify possible covid symptoms? They could be instructed to then see their doctor.
Testing doesn’t seem like it is that useful because you can be tested negative today then get covid the next day. We can’t keep getting tested everyday so what is the purpose of it? Instead of testing and worrying we should be getting medicines that work. Isn’t this the modern scientific method, rather than walking around with masks on our faces like we are living in the middle ages?
The creeps in power don’t want us to stay healthy. They don’t want to invest in research on medicines and vitamins that could protect us from covid. They are shills of big pharma and their own devious political plots.
I have a friend whose husband died last month from lung cancer. He'd had it for a while and was deteriorating rapidly. He refused to stop smoking and continued the habit until the end. He also had diabetes and heart disease. He was 79 years old when he passed away.
When she got the death certificate, the hospital he had died in had coded his illness as Covid-19 and put that down as the cause of death. Problem was, less than a week before he died, he had tested negative for the corona virus.
Second story. My wife has a friend who made an appointment with her clinic to get tested for the virus. However, she changed her mind and cancelled the appointment. A week later she got a letter from the clinic indicating she had tested positive for the corona virus. She never took the test.
The tests for the corona virus are notoriously unreliable in their results:
Be cautious about believing what the government and health authorities are telling us about this virus and the disease you can get from it, Covid-19. There are financial incentives and political agendas driving this pandemic that change the dynamics of what is really happening.
I personally don't believe a word anybody says about any of it.
