My point is there ARE no numbers, because we have not done widespread testing of apparently healthy individuals.

However, judging (extrapolating is the scientific term) from the fact that a good percentage of those who (so far) HAVE been tested even though they don’t have ANY symptoms, it appears that the infection rate is widespread. THIS IS A GOOD THING, because the vast majority have NO symptoms.

As another example, say we did NOT count everybody who gets the Flu - we only counted people who showed up at the emergency room with it, and then we also counted those who died. The mortality rate would be 5-10%! But we KNOW that tens of millions get the Flu every year and take over-the-counter meds, or just muddle through.

THIS IS HYPE CITY. If it were REAL, there would be tens of thousands dead already.

Morgue filling up? That’s because there are no funerals allowed. If we stopped emptying morgues, even without COVID-19 they would fill up because you cannot bury people....

PEOPLE ARE STUPID AND THE POLITICIANS ARE GRABBING POWER DUE TO THEY REALIZE THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH IT.
