CORONAVIRUS Death Thread

You're fucking retarded. With several hundred thousand tests this is what Science calls a representative sampling of the entire population.

We can assume with a test case of SEVERAL HUNDRED THOUSAND, that this is representative of the entire population. Meaning, if 12 % of the US has been infected that approximately 45.6 million people in the US alone have already contracted COVID-19 with approximately 50,000 deaths.

45.6million/55,548 deaths as of right now = a mortality rate of 0.12181% or just about 1/8th of 1% chance of death.

This is the math

This is the science

Quit parroting your corporate overlords, the facts are the facts dipshit.

We can't assume anything right now because studies make their way into the media before they're peer reviewed. Some might be only 89% accurate and producing false positives, I'm not sure which study you're referencing but I know the Stanford one has come under scrutiny. The NYC study seemed to indicate an IFR between .2 and. 8 percent I think, still pretty damn high. There are problems with study too especially with selection bias.

If you want to be scientific about this then be skeptical of any information coming out right now, not just ones that align with preconceived notions.

89% accuracy or 'sensitivity' in tests like these is very common and some level of false positive results are inherent in all clinical tests. For example, those flu swabs you get when you go to the doctor have a similar level of sensitivity. They are still useful.

Nukes aren’t real? What about nuclear power plants ?

Nuclear bombs not real. Nuclear power plants real. Nuclear bombs does not equal nuclear power plants.

Tell that to the people at Bikini (or the US navy guys on the ships nearby who were told to sit on the decks of the ships with hands over their faces)
