RE: Statistics from the Johns Hopkins website show us that the United States has a COVID survivability rate of 98.4%, meaning 1.6% of Americans with COVID die.

This is NOT good news. There used to be a time when the survivability rate was 99.7%. That means MORE people are dying now than before.

Last summer, a poll showed the average person thought the death rate from covid was 40%. and yes, that’s the MSM’s fault.

These two statements are not reconcilable, unless a huge portion of people who die from Covid are never hospitalized. I believe the article's claim about the hosptialization rate is false.

Absolutely. The media wildly exaggerates and also just makes stuff up to make the environment seem more dangerous than it is.

These numbers mean nothing.

If you are fat and diabetic your chances greatly increase

You dont even have to be diabetic

FAT seems to be a significant part of the problem

Thank you posting.

I have posted about similar surveys in the past and had been wondering if the figures changed any.

I think it's true that an ever increasing number of Americans are pathological hypochondriacs.

Besides the issue of underlying conditions (obese, diabetic, preexisting respiratory issues, etc.), there’s also the standard stock question which never seems to be addressed: FROM COVID or WITH COVID.

I guess the media is to blame, but really the problem is the stupid people who believe the fake news media and are so easily brainwashed.

Or to spread the blame around even more widely - maybe the smart people need to start asserting themselves like they did in the old days.

I remember my grandfathers and great uncles made a point of making me feel foolish if I said or did something foolish. They would give me that withering look of puzzlement that said “are you really that stupid?”

Teachers back then had no problem shaming stupidity. They literally had “dunce caps” and made you sit facing the corner. OK, maybe that was a little before my time…

But perhaps we need to go back to that. Make sure the stupid know they are stupid. If nobody is going to point out stupidity, why would anyone make the effort to rise above it?

Can we now proclaim that the COVID-19 pandemic was a manufactured HOAX?

99.?% survive anyway.

Seasonal flu DISAPPEARS when COVID appears.

“WITH” COVID becomes “FROM” COVID.

“Pneumonia” (bacterial infection) becomes “COVID Pneumonia” (viral infection).

I wonder what would happen if the government paid/reimbursed at a much higher rate if patients were classified as having/dying from COVID?

I wonder what would happen if doctors refused/were prevented from prescribing life saving treatments/prophylactics (a medicine or course of action used to prevent disease.) like Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin?

I wonder what would happen if hospitalized patients were put on ventilators, sedated, refused family member visits, and refused life saving treatments.

I wonder how “safe” a vaccine, developed at “warp speed”, would be if we granted immunity from being sued to BIG PHARMA?

I wonder where we would be now if we never adopted “15 days to slow the spread,” ?

FULL herd immunity?

If course the media is to blame. The media almost single-handedly created the hype and shut downs. If not for them, we might still have a President Trump.

Think about what we see on the news and the misinformation they spread, it is more poisonous than COVID

“FACT-O-RAMA! Statistics from the Johns Hopkins website show us that the United States has a COVID survivability rate of 98.4%, meaning 1.6% of Americans with COVID die. Turkey has the highest survivability rate at 99.1%.”

A little full disclosure. This rate was arrived at by ONLY counting CONFIRMED cases. The estimate of those who had it and were never tested or visited a doctor is easily twice the official number. That means the mortality rate is at least half of what is claimed.

Also, Johns Hopkins has been eyeballs deep in the Covid scam since Nov-2019 with it’s event 201 exercise.

The media are guilty indeed, but so are “public health experts” that fail to contextualize their data.

The hospital ER I work in has a handful of Covid cases, less than a dozen. Compared to this time last year there has been a major improvement.

People who aren’t dealing with this and seeing the situation first hand day in and week out ought to shut up.
