They're enforcing a mask mandate in my territory of 40,000 people, with *no cases since april.*
It's stupid
Literally nobody lives here and we already socially distance
People have finally snapped. As always, it won't be long before it happens here. I can see some signs on my college campus.
There is a quiet kind of protest I've been seeing for a while; we don't wear masks at work, just in and out to make it look good, no one wears them in bars and restaurants and we all hug and shake hands like we always have. I think most of us do it just so we don't invoke the wrath of the odd Karen.
But I hope people start doing this in the big cities that are the worst offenders
Been looking at some raw data, found this interesting. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/health_policy/influenza-and-pneumonia-deaths-2008-2015.pdf
I have seen so many 99.8% survival rates memes. You guys realize that number is as fake news as CNN saying 250k deaths is bad right?
You get the survival rate by taking the number of cases and divide the deaths by that and multiply by 100. You get about 3% deaths world wide.
I enjoy bursting everyone's bubbles on that one ✌️
That’s if you average the cases among everyone.
Not everyone is equally affected.
@Knotty You’re assuming everyone infected has taken a covid test. Ex: More than half of my family tested positive with Covid, the remaining, including myself, incurred a fever but did not get ourselves tested. We are all alive today.
Trump even used the 99% survival rate during the debate
The 3% is the CASE Fatality Rate, the INFECTION Fatality Rate is about the same as the seasonal flu. For CFR it's the amount of people who have tested positive and/or been diagnosed, IFR is the amount infected including those who were not detected
So apparently, with me being in college, I now have to get the Flu shot, cus covid
And with my job, its is also now required for me to get the Flu shot
Good thing I won't be getting a shot at all
Oh I really dont wanna take it
I’d say time to find a new college/ job...if it’s worth doing, you will find a way
That would both be expensive and difficult
And as a college student, definetly not flush with cash
frankly if my College is gonna force Covid Vaccinations, imma drop out, because i dont trust whats in the Vaccine
dont want Bill Gates sterilization vaccine or religion killin vaccine
If it was the covid vaccine that's a straight nope from me

@Finch and the 99.9% infected suggests that 100% of the population has been infected
or 99.9% survival rate number I should say
if we tested 100% of the population for antibodies and the actual covid test I think we would find that MAYBE 30-40% of the population has actually had the virus at all.
but until that happens we won't know the true death rate
but based off the current confirmed (positive tests) and current deaths (which I took 20% off the top because of the bullshit "covid gun shots") it is around 2.6% of people die from confirmed positive test results.
Which is still pretty low
Considering they thought this was a world ender
okay @Dstar_Destroyer if I gave you a bowl of 100 M&M's and told you that 3 of them are poison would you take 1 of the M&M's if 3 of them will 100% kill you
not 1 single person that was sane said it was a world ender
they suggested that up to 10% of the world population COULD die, but that won't actually happen
Jokes on you, I dont like m&ms but i get your analogy
I see it as the virus won't be going away, it may be the next flu, just the ever present virus every year, I refuse to be scared of it every single day of my life
