Well, America just passed, a half million cases of Coronavirus.
We are very close now, to having experienced the highest death toll, in the entire world.

I hadn't thought of that. It makes sense.
Hydroxychloroquine
“Why we lost 27 here today alone and there’s only 4 of us.”
Please help an old man with your math.
4. The only stat that matters is a PER CAPITA measurement
5. Treat all the Western and European countries as one big EU country to get an apples and oranges comparison. Either that or count each of the 50 individual United States as separate entities.
7. China is lying. It just doesn’t add up how few of their provinces or large cities got hit.
Wake up, man up cba123. # of cases is meaningless. Completely meaningless.
# of hospitalizations is slightly more meaningful, but still 98% of ‘cases’ recover.
And now we’re learning hospitals know of the government freebies available and are doubling back to classify as many deaths as possible as COVID-19. They’re getting $13K for each hospitalization—fair enough. $39K for every patient put on ventilator.
I am glad to say that I said it. That Chicken Freepers would pivot from OMG look at the fatality rate (because it would drop with wider scale testing) to OMG look at the number of cases (because testing shows more cases).
The increasing number of infections is great news. We are closer then ever to mass immunity and the mortality rate is low.
2020 US dearths 2,900,000
Death by Corona 61,000
Tell me again why you say this not good, not good at all.
Bet you are getting a government check.
He is working from home for now. He’s a project manager for a high end flooring company in Manhattan. Today was supposed to be his last paycheck but his boss applied for the SBA PPP program. The longer they stay out the less likely the business will survive
There is a reason that India is (by far) the biggest producer of Hydroxychloroquine.
They USE it.
They have vastly more people than America.
They USE the drug.
They have 7,600 cases of COVID-19.
Indians wanted to hoard HCQ....and I’ll bet they’re using mass quantities....as a preventative. An Italian style outbreak there would mean curtains
Hew York+New Jersey
and then run the same numbers for
the other 48 states, which contain 91 percent of our population.
It's very enlightening. In fact I'll do it for you!
NY+NJ: 7963 infections per million, 343 deaths per million
Rest of USA: 1514 infections per million, 56 deaths per million
Every governor in flyover country who has forced a lockdown has claimed "We're going to get what New York is getting now!" It is increasingly hard to make that warning stick.
I’d be bummed too with that much death around me.
So sad, Cuomo could have used HCQ earlier to save many.
great point about India and malaria....many there are resistant because of HCQ.
Same with lupus patients.
Compare death/million of population
If the New New New model is correct that number will be .00017%.
Not counting China, where some estimates calculate the real number of deaths at eight million!
When we have the most dead people, it won’t be because of testing or because of liberal propaganda.
At any given time there are at least 15 diseases circulating in India which are worse than this one.
I see that you are originally from China, now in Vietnam.
Get out of here with your ChiCom propaganda!
Please. Assuming a 1% mortality rate (which is way too high btw) would be about 100k deaths in a year assuming that infection rate happened every day all year and that the mortality rate is 1%..
6 times that many people die in the US die from cancer.
