You did not post " If a quarantine saves just one life, it's worth it," thus it was the post by the author "null and void" that I responded to, while you were simply copied in as one who also had responded to that post. No drugs: just a common FR practice. Sorry to see it offended you.
Deaths per 100,000 population:
https://www.statista.com/statistics/1109011/coronavirus-covid19-death-rates-us-by-state/
New York - 161
and Florida - 15
Here are the top ten states by mortality and the party affiliation of the Governor:
New Jersey D
New York D
Connecticut D
Massachusetts R
Rhode Island D
Louisiana D
Michigan D
Illinois D
Delaware D
Maryland R
The people gathering the data and compiling the statistics have made so many major blunders that I don't trust the so called data and then the conclusions.
There is a very common error is statistics and data gathering where there is a change in the trend, the assumption is that something changed. When, what actually happened, is data gathering methods changed.
I am hearing a lot about people being tested positive for the virus but not having any symptoms or testing positive for the antibodies. Also, I have heard that the test is unreliable. There are also people who don't what a return to normalcy.
There is another common error is statistics where people are not objective about the data and will skew (or interpret) the data in a direction that they either knowingly or unknowingly desire.
Both of these conditions have happened and continue to happen.
You’re talking to yourself when you accuse others of being stupid.
You’ve proved it to me, no doubt many others.
Must be pretty miserable to be you.
I’ve stated facts and always will continue to do so. I don’t have to project BS on to others to pummel like an utter moron.
You’ve done a lot of things, projecting on to others and showing everyone who would have any interest what an asshole is.
You can’t teach anyone anything because people flee from you. I’m sure they flee anytime there’s a sighting of you.
Someone probably has written a book about it. I’d buy it.
You must enjoy your own echo chamber. I receive daily private feedback from numerous freepers they are glad you are getting schooled with data and experience. If you think you are the hero it is merely more proof of your narcissistic personality disorder.
You are not well regarded, Walter, outside of your own little echo chamber and other children hiding under the bed.
Death from COVID-19 isn’t hard to classify for doctors & coroners signing death certificates: positive COVID virus test, 80% plus on a ventilator when they pass on, fluid on the lungs, low O2 levels causing multiple organ failure, lung damage on x-ray, viral pneumonia present, etc., etc.. There may be larger margins of error in “who had COVID already” (lack of antibody testing), and “what is the CFR” (case fatality rate) due to not knowing with accuracy the total # of previously infected, but the fatality count from COVID is just a matter of collecting/counting up/totaling the death certificate data.
As far as this particular article/thread goes (CFR/IFR)... everything I see from doctors and studies points to a CFR/IFR of about 0.30%-0.48% (about 2x-3x as fatal as “regular flu’)(really bad “regular flu” years yield a CFR of about 0.17%). This based on an estimate of the total of those infected in the general pop. as a whole (asymptomatic or not) divided into the fatality count. The “total infected” is estimated to be around 10x the “tested case count” or 4-6% of the total US population...this count is aided by several antibody test studies.
Honestly, I have been here since 1998. No one has ever posted to me merely because I answered on a thread like that.
I guess you learn something new every day. Ha ha.
I’ve been warned by many of your pedantic boorishness but you apparently are not and continue to make more ridiculous allegations.
Show me where I stated the mortality rate for the ChiCom Virus was 3%.
You can’t because you just make crap up and project it on others.
I’ve written the rate is likely 0.5% and will be less when more accounting of cases is rendered.
PWNED!
Suck on that.
Wow you are so original, and own a Thesaurus! Amazing you counter each of my statements with a regurgitation of my statement making it your own. You truly are clueless and incapable of an original thought.
Suck on that? Glad to hear you utilize 7th grade arguments. Go ahead, keep showing your narcissistic personality disorder. Here is a pro tip, If you have a personality disorder rooted in self grandeur, you cannot tolerate any criticism without blowing up. You are, and continue to be nothing more than a volatile bully with no original thought nor argument.
The only reason why I respond is that is gives me the entertainment of watching you predictably erupt. You spew talking points and cannot even come close to defending yourself in a debate.
Face it, you really have the intellectual fire power of a birthday candle that was just blown out...
I shall await your next post that continues to show that you are all hat and no cattle.
No one really cares about someone who resorts to lying as you did.
You lied.
You lied and do it so you can beat up your own created straw man.
Has nothing to do with what I’ve stated on the pandemic mortality.
Again, I never said anything about a 3% mortality rate for the ChiCom Virus. I’ve cited far lower numbers at 0.5% and predict it will be lower when all cases are estimated and then accounted.
You can’t show anything because you enjoy lying and you have NOTHING!
A gasbag liar with no evidence is just a gasbag.
Gasssssbaggggg liar. The evidence is in!
You really are stuck on stupid arent you? Just saying the same thing over and over works for Lins and Democrats. It doesnt work for conservatives. Seems you should head over to DU
And another predictable response from you. I write down what I think you are going to spew before you crawl to your keyboard. I have not been wrong yet
I have commented in the past about the importance of taking various vitamins and minerals, including zinc to prevent or reduce strength of Covid infection. So now I have checked with Google and found a number of articles pointing to an increase in purchase of all health maintenance products including vits and mins. So how much improvement in lower death rates and more asymptomatic infected has been influenced by the judicious use of appropriate supplements?
You might find my Comment #93 interesting with its link to a number of articles showing how purchase of nutrition supplements and other health items have increased with the Covid pandemic. Regarding the use of zinc and HCQ, it has constantly struck me how frequently it appears as if Fauci has managed to get any mention of zinc downplayed. This despite the fact HCQ is so valuable as it opens up cells to allow zinc inside to destroy virus reproduction. Of course the fact that Gilead has announced that one treatment course with Remdesivir will be more that $1,000 whereas Dr. Vladimir Zelenko says his treatment costs $12 may have some influence. Why isn’t our government doing follow-up studies to verify the effectiveness of Zelenko’s out-patient treatment? I believe some private group(s) are trying to validate his work. You would think some big non-medical company would want successful early treatment so business can open up safely and not destroy their economy.
World wide 10 million cases.
World wide 500 thousand deaths.
They must be using common corpse math.
Half a million out of 10 million is 5%...
I’m on the EVMS Covid-19 Protocol for prophylaxis. Easy to find on search engines. OK... What the hell does that mean. I take zinc (50mg) once daily and quercetin (800mg) twice daily. Quercetin is a poor man’s HCQ and acts in the same inophore way, albeit at about 35% of what HCQ can do. So far no problems and no erections lasting longer than 4 hours. Sorry.
Don't you ever get tired of getting your ass kicked?
It’s actually less than 0.026%.
100*500,000/10,000,000 is not 0.026%
Even to some poor 14 year old victim of the California State educational system.
Even with common corpse math.
Even with both.
Millions of people didn’t die as you predicted and you are desperately sldiapponted and in complete denial.
