you can't have a 6% lethality and a 98% recovery rate, that math doesnt check out

The death rate vs the population as a whole is under .1%
These are the facts

you can't have over 100%

I don't think statistics are factoring in those who get it and are never tested.

and they certainly aren't factoring in those who have died at home

in all reality, we're never really going to be able to compare the true number of deaths until we are able to take the amount of people who died in 2019 and compare it to the amount of people who died in 2020

that will be the only concrete number in the end

The only way to measure lethality is the number of deaths vs the population. We have no idea how many people have the virus. So the only information is total population and total deaths. The numbers simply dont lie. Look them up if you want but I don't need to know that 40k dead in a nation of 320 million is NOT 6%. Or 1%.

it's 80k

Allegedly

Fine. Call it 140k. Still not 1%

I did not have sexual relations with that woman.

ok but we don't compare it to the amount of healthy people for a reason

Shit, even with the worst projections at 2 million, youre still not at 1%

this virus has been around for like 6 months, it's been picking up speed in the US for 2

Deaths divided by the sick = mortality rate

which, right now, is 6%

According to whomst'd?

> ok but we don't compare it to the amount of healthy people for a reason
@Bender
And that reason is to create panic and confusion in people that don't understand that saying it kills 6% means 6% of the 1 million they have tested. Not a 6% lethality

On a side note props to you guys for being mature

it kills 6% of people who get it

it has a lethality rate

of 6%

I'm used to everything on Facebook being a shitfest

i'm usually an autist and start REEing this far in but ive been trying to be better about that recently

But that number is useless as it is being used to convine people that 6% of every one will die. Language is being perverted. I'm perverting it back.
Point still stands. Less than .1% of people will die from covid

no your point doesn't stand at all

neither parts of it

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

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

Not people who never get it

literally this

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

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

it has a 6% lethality

who gives a shit what they're using it for

that just makes them retarded

it doesnt change the definition of the term

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

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.
