I got it from post 227 in today’s daily CV thread.

That poster got it from here-

https://flutrackers.com/forum/forum/-2019-ncov-new-coronavirus/united-states-2019-ncov/842586-comparing-flu-and-covid-19-deaths#post845573

Feel free to go argue with them about it if you need it to be false, as seems to be the case, because it makes perfect sense to me.

Hah!

Thanks for the laugh, literally.

That's someones opinion that is scientifically meaningless.

"I know it's not apples to apples, the estimated number of flu deaths is about 6 times higher than the numbers recorded by the NCHS, but there is every reason to believe that the actual number of coronavirus fatalities is also larger than the subset that gets confirmed. There has only been 4 weeks of data. Where is this going to end up?"

Left that little disclaimer off the current graph.

Twitter: @RonanKelly13 The views expressed are mine alone and do not represent the views of my employer or any other person or organization.

I'm sorry, but that graph is a joke and any reason for posting it is unconscionable, IMO.

Arguing about it would be pointless considering the source and disclaimers from the source itself.
