This is their estimate of the total numbers, not just those confirmed by testing or diagnosis. The total number is what contributes to our herd immunity.

We now have 164.2M people fully vaccinated in the USA, but don't know how many of those previously infected are also counted among the vaccinated. If there was absolutely no overlap, we'd have 85% of the population with strong immunity.

The last update was as of the end of March (2021), which had 114.6 million estimated total infections.

So April and May added about 5 million more, to the CDC's estimate, or roughly 100K/day on average.

No where is the data item that reflects people who got the wuhan flu, recovered, and now have immunity.

As longs as this bureaucracy is "estimating",,, how about the recovered numbers?

They wont.

"1 in 1.8 COVID–19 hospitalizations were reported.
1 in 1.3 COVID-19 deaths were reported."


I think it is more like:
2 in 1 COVID–19 hospitalizations were reported.
3 in 1 COVID-19 deaths were reported.

Note how the political and media elitists are bloviating about vaccine mandates while completely ignoring natural immunity. That alone makes me not trust them at all.

“how about the recovered numbers?”

Subtract Deaths from Infected, and that should be close to the recovered.

Of course, some are still in the hospital, so if we round the Deaths up to a million - that would leave about an estimated 119 million infected and recovered.

How about the press stops talking about COVID and it’ll end. Of course that wouldn’t advance the Democrat agenda!

I knew it was going to be a strange day………

But I actually agree with you.

Natural Immunity is the best.

There are problems however.
Since this whole thing began, some people (like me) had Covid and didn’t know what it was or knew but there was no available testing so early on.

So it’s called “Presumed” Covid-19.
Last I heard, antibody test are only obtainable for about 4 months after infection.
So we don’t know for sure if those people had Covid-19 or something else.

Also, there are people that actually became infected with the yearly Flu and they believed and seem sure it was Covid.

I know this because I’ve met a few of these people.
2 of them later became infected with Confirmed Covid.
Only then did they realize the huge difference.

I think you are correct though.

More consideration needs to be given to people that already had a documented confirmed case of Covid.

Even though I had the 4 banger Flu shot in December 2019, later when I got Covid I knew this was something totally different. But test did not exist at that point.
So, I’m “Presumed” Covid and still made the choice to get vaccinated.

Weird day when I agree with ya, eh? LOL

This Dr. thinks breakthrough cases are because spoiled vaccine was given, the people who got it didn't develop immunity. He disagrees with Robert Malone that break throughs are ADE.

May 19, 2021 was a big day 4 @US_FDA strategists @Woodcock. Wasn't it?

On that day, FDA told America that it's not necessary 2 B too tight with cold storage of the mRNA C-19 Vax. They also discouraged Americans from testing for C-19 Abs post-vax.

He is also vehemently against vaccination when there is natural immunity.

The last thing hospital's would do is under report the hospitalizations and deaths, since they got paid handsomely for those patients.

More CDC BS.

This should be easy to prove or disprove. I hope the FDA and the pharmaceutical companies follow up on this. A random sample for antibodies from multiple regions should show if this is a major problem.

It is a fact that many vaccinated people are getting covid. Let me know if you find any information proving or disproving it’s spoiled vaccines or not.

FDA did recommend not testing for immunity post vax on May 19, which is the same day they changed storage and handling requirements per Pfizer.

Will do. The simplest way is just to test a few thousand vaccinated people for antibodies and concentrate on known hotspots for commonality. But what do I know lol?

Was an autopsy performed to verify they died of Covid?

I don’t think it’s going to happen. I
The whole thing has hit an iceberg and is sinking.

Not many I would presume. But it’s a pretty good bet that many people were sent home or didn’t seek treatment and went downhill fast.

And of course a lot of deaths for other causes were attributed to COVID that weren’t. The true count will never be accurately known.

I doubt that they allowed money in the bank to be sent back home, but perhaps they did. No way to confirm or repudiate that though. As for going downhill fast, that may be the case for those who might live all by themselves. But again, no way to confirm or repudiate that either.
