no your point doesn't stand at all

2020-05-14 04:31:46 UTC  

neither parts of it

2020-05-14 04:31:53 UTC  

But deaths from the disease divided by the total number of sick people is literally how they determine something's lethality though.

2020-05-14 04:32:05 UTC  

the meaning of what lethality in a disease is does not change based on how it is used

2020-05-14 04:32:16 UTC  

Not people who never get it

2020-05-14 04:32:22 UTC  

literally this

2020-05-14 04:32:33 UTC  

the literal definition of lethality in a disease is how many people die *who get it*

2020-05-14 04:32:39 UTC  

so if 6% of people *who get it* die

2020-05-14 04:32:42 UTC  

it has a 6% lethality

2020-05-14 04:32:51 UTC  

who gives a shit what they're using it for

2020-05-14 04:32:55 UTC  

that just makes them retarded

2020-05-14 04:33:00 UTC  

it doesnt change the definition of the term

2020-05-14 04:33:45 UTC  

we don't say ebola has a lethality of 50% because it's thanos everyone

2020-05-14 04:33:54 UTC  

Ok. Thats true. And smart people know that. But the way it is being sold by the MSM is using that number and impersise language to say that you have a 6% chance of dying from it. They leave out the part about having it.

2020-05-14 04:33:57 UTC  

we say it has a lethality of 50% because it kills about 50% of people who get it

2020-05-14 04:34:11 UTC  

are you saying that based on evidence you've seen

2020-05-14 04:34:16 UTC  

or are you saying it because you saw someone else say it

2020-05-14 04:34:47 UTC  

because man aside from a few really out-there articles i've yet to see anything like that, and just so you are aware, no i do not get my information on this from the main media outlets

2020-05-14 04:34:54 UTC  

And further I dispute the numbers. Cdc itself adjusted the death count from 60kish to 35kish. That not a small discrepancy

2020-05-14 04:34:57 UTC  

I DO believe the lethality they're claiming is inaccurate though because there are probably countless people who are asymptomatic or just get over it at home with nobody knowing.

2020-05-14 04:35:01 UTC  

It does not kill 50% of the people who get it

2020-05-14 04:35:11 UTC  

it was an example, gumper

2020-05-14 04:35:21 UTC  

I would bet my life savings on 94%

2020-05-14 04:35:35 UTC  

i was talking about the definition of a term, not the disease mentioned in the analogy

2020-05-14 04:35:37 UTC  

Ok

2020-05-14 04:35:49 UTC  

I was about to lose my mind

2020-05-14 04:35:54 UTC  

yeah no no no

2020-05-14 04:36:01 UTC  

ebolas death rate actually kinda varies

2020-05-14 04:36:10 UTC  

it has been as low as 25% and up as high as 90

2020-05-14 04:36:20 UTC  

And lastly, fuck it. It's a virus. Unless we ALL wear level 4 bio suits for the next few years ALL the time, its gonna spread. So let me get a fucking double whopper and sit in the fucking dinning room!😅

2020-05-14 04:36:20 UTC  

was just the first thing that popped into my head so i used it

2020-05-14 04:36:32 UTC  

the thing is, though

2020-05-14 04:36:41 UTC  

No. No thing

2020-05-14 04:36:55 UTC  

Double whopper. Naked now

2020-05-14 04:36:57 UTC  

Living in downtown of a city I bus everywhere. I miss fast food. Lol

2020-05-14 04:36:58 UTC  

the whole 'flatten the curve' thing is to prevent the virus from getting so crazy so fast that it overwhelms hospitals like it did in italy, for example

2020-05-14 04:37:08 UTC  

it's not to get rid of it

2020-05-14 04:37:13 UTC  

I do like meatballs

2020-05-14 04:37:24 UTC  

In subs

2020-05-14 04:37:27 UTC  

the point is to make it long and drawn out so that we don't get into situations like italy was in

2020-05-14 04:37:33 UTC  

With lots of sauce and cheese
