97.1% of over 70s not in care homes survive.
Top epidemiologist Professor John Ioannidis has published a new study which concludes that the survival rate of people under the age of 20 who catch COVID is 99.9987%.
The data used from the study was taken before the advent of mass vaccination programs, meaning the numbers apply to unvaccinated people.
Ioannidis previously published an analysis of seroprevalence (antibody) studies from 2020, which resulted in him being able to reveal that the infection fatality rate for COVID globally was around 0.15%. In Europe, the number stood at 0.3%-0.4% , while in Africa and Asia it went down to 0.05%.
Now the professor has published new information that breaks down infection fatality rates by age.
...
From analysis of 25 seroprevalence surveys across 14 countries, Prof. Ioannidis and his colleague found the IFR varied from 0.0013% in the under-20s (around one in 100,000) to 0.65% in those in their 60s,” writes Will Jones.
For those above 70 not in a care home it was 2.9%, rising to 4.9% for all over-70s. This means that even for the elderly, more than 95% of those infected survive – 97.1% when considering those not in a care home. For younger people the mortality risk is orders of magnitude less, with 99.9987% of under-20s surviving a bout of the virus. These survival rates include people with underlying health conditions, so for the healthy the rates will be higher again (and the fatality rates lower).”
The authors of the study concluded that the data reflects the reality that the infection fatality rate of COVID is substantially lower than previously reported estimates.
“The study’s findings confirm that Covid is a mild disease in all but a small minority of cases. With Omicron now reducing the severity several-fold further, even the proponents of lockdown should be able to accept that this virus is well below a level where restrictions are justifiable,” writes Jones.
The results of the study once again bring into question the rationality of giving COVID-19 vaccines to young people and children.

Paging the “wise Latina”.
The house of COVID cards is collapsing.
gotta jab them all to save that massive .0013%
even though the jab will kill more of them than the disease would
“For those above 70 not in a care home it was 2.9%, rising to 4.9% for all over-70s. “ .....just down the country immediately.
Butt 100,000 kids in the hospital with breathing tubes and stuff. Wise latinex said so.
I think the survivability of Covid is 99.98% for those who do not have the top 4 comorbidities. This was no reason to lock down the entire population, it was a reason to sequester people with comorbidities.
My 19 year old will be “boosted” before I will be, even though I’m in my 50s. He chose to go to Cal State, which mandates boosters. I’ll get my booster only when international travel requires it.
Quite ridiculous, since he yes has a nearly 100% percent survivability rate. And actually he had it last month and I had it this month, so we have immunities anyway. . .
John Ioannidis is probably the #1 guy in the world on this stuff. Fauci isn’t fit to carry his jockstrap.
Which means the vax is killing more yutes than Covid is.
I see so many people every day who vaccinated their children- not even teens- with this crap and it takes an extreme act of will not to say anything (I’m at work). After the call I get a headache from it. I can’t believe sheer number of ‘followers’ in the world and in our country. (Is this because of social media- no pun intended). Until this prevailing attitude of blindly ‘following’ ( changes on basic level- we’re doomed- I see no way this BS or our country- can ever be reversed?
..5 percent of the population of New York City died of Covid. The disease was more deadly in 2020 because we have discovered which steroids work, how to keep people alive on the ventilator, Regeneron, Remdesivir, Ivermectin if you are able to get it. The fatality rate went from 2 percent to 1 percent. But 35,000 people died in NYC most of them in he first wave in 2020. John Ioannids is using idiotic methods to claim the original disease (alpha and Delta) were “Just the flu”. I honestly hope he loses his job, he is a disgrace.
Very sad. I often find it hard not to feel hopeless. Very grateful for this forum and it’s general support. ‘Talking’ a bit here helps a lot
"of" or "with" ? You cannot prove either one, so your opinion is just that--an opinion not based in fact.
My own study using the CFR and not the IFR (which is the percentage of Covid-19 deaths in the U.S. out of the estimated total number of cases) from last month is
1. Case Fatality Rates per age classes
Age alone (though substantially linked to overall heath) is the most pronounced factor in Covid-19 deaths, but Covid-19 comorbidities are the over driver behind Covid-assigned deaths. .
COVID-19 is real and a serious threat overall to those in poor health, and especially the aged, as the CDC reported that more than 81% of COVID-19 deaths occur in people over age 65, and with the number of deaths among people over age 65 being 80 times higher than the number of deaths among people aged 18-29.[1] However, obesity — which over 42% of Americans are — along with high blood pressure and diabetes (which tend to be related to obesity) are leading comorbidities in Covid-assigned deaths (and obesity itself is estimated to be attributable to 2,800,000 deaths in America over a 10 year period — at 280,000 per year).
As of Nov. 18 (as well as at the original time of this writing on 12/10/21), the Case Fatality Rate (CFR) — which is the percentage of Covid-19 deaths in the U.S. out of the total number of cases — is 1.6%, and which includes all people of all ages and conditions. Based on statistics from between the beginning of January 2020 until December 8, 2021,the CFR for those aged 0-17 calculates (Y is what % of X) to 0.01% (644 deaths out of 6,310,536 cases); and for those aged 18-29 the CFR is 0.05% (4,700 deaths out of 8,667,566 cases); for ages 30-39 it is 0.21% (13,882 deaths out of 6,697,096 cases); for ages 40-49 it is 0.58% (33,706 deaths out of 5,832,777 cases); for ages 50-64 it is 1.88% (145,247 deaths out of 7,717,656 cases); but for the ages of 65-74 it jumps to 6.21% (178,912 deaths out of 2,880,341 cases); and for the combined ages of 75 and all those who are older then it leaps to 18.43% (411,177 deaths out of 2,231,117 cases). Sources: Statista; CDC on 12/10/21.
Therefore based upon statistics on those aged 0-64 who were tested as being infected with Covid and found or judged as having died from it, then the CFR is 0.56% (198,179 deaths out of 35,225,631 cases, or 1 out of 180). In contrast, for those ages 65 and up the CFR rises to 11.54% (590,089 deaths out of 5,111,458 cases, combined). For comparison, the odds of dying in a motor vehicle accident are 1 in 107 (0.93%) and your chances of getting into a motor vehicle accident are one in 366 (0.27%) for every 1,000 miles driven. And thus despite headlines of exceptions, for the young (and fit and healthy) the odds of dying from Covid-19 are very minimal.
That is, unless you are “quarantined” in the womb. since as the CDC reports, "in 2019, the abortion ratio was 195 abortions per 1,000 live births,” which means that the “pregnancy fatality rate” (PFR) is 19.5% (excluding spontaneous miscarriages among known pregnancies which are estimated to average approx. 15%). Thus to impose long-term severe restrictions and requirements in the interest of saving lives (yet which restrictions have their own deleterious effects) due to an infectious somewhat preventable disease, while actually fostering the death of the most vulnerable who are safely “quarantined” in the womb of their mother — as well as doing comparatively little to combat the leading Covid-19 comorbidities — is irrationally inconsistent.

13 per million cases. That’s what 99.9987% means.
That’s the death rate for people under 20.
So, of course, we need mandatory vaxxes for children, because the risk an experimental vaccine is way more than their risk from catching the disease.
We’re being run by idiots.
