Nobody actually knows what the R0 really is. There are estimates but the political power of a pandemic has prevented us from knowing anything. Nobody knows what the case fatality rate is because nobody really knows how many cases there are or have been. There is the number of positive tests some of which are PCR which have a high probability of false positive and the antibody tests when positive are people no longer at risk of infection. The case fatality rate is corrupt because of the subsidizing of cases. If a covid case pays better than a flu case there will be more COVID and less flu. Diagnosis is political also. 1.3 million is an outrageous number since actual deaths since the disease was first detected fewer than 10 percent of the deaths were actually covid deaths.
You’re peddling fear by making people think we don’t know what’s going on. Like Alfred Hitchcock, just trying to scare the Hell out of people with the unknown.
No, we do know what the R0 really is. We do know what the Infection Fatality Rate is. We know how it spreads. We know who is most vulnerable to it. We know how to control it and we know how to stop it.
We know all we need to know about it to put an end to it and it’s going to end very soon. You can peddle your fear all you want, but nobody needs to buy into it. We know exactly what we’re dealing with and thanks to President Trump’s leadership early on, it’ll all be over months - perhaps as much as a year - sooner than it would have been.
