it certainly isn't a 98% survival rate, but if you are young and healthy with no pre-existing anything and you don't drink or smoke you have good odds but it can still kill you. you aren't invincible
Message permalink: 710346429918609428
6% lethality in the states rn
Message permalink: 710346483148259408
muuuch higher in other places
Message permalink: 710346509232767006
> it certainly isn't a 98% survival rate, but if you are young and healthy with no pre-existing anything and you don't drink or smoke you have good odds but it can still kill you. you aren't invincible @Bender It is tho. Sorry but math dont lie
Message permalink: 710346561028227223
no it isn't
Message permalink: 710346595127787552
6% lethality means that 94% recover
Message permalink: 710346633610657802
you can't have a 6% lethality and a 98% recovery rate, that math doesnt check out
Message permalink: 710346691319955508
The death rate vs the population as a whole is under .1% These are the facts
Message permalink: 710346699041669180
you can't have over 100%
Message permalink: 710346704511172669
and they certainly aren't factoring in those who have died at home
Message permalink: 710346790414712832
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
Message permalink: 710346937655885854
that will be the only concrete number in the end
Message permalink: 710347001346129932
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%.
Message permalink: 710347444835319808
it's 80k
Message permalink: 710347490049785877
Fine. Call it 140k. Still not 1%
Message permalink: 710347561608675359
ok but we don't compare it to the amount of healthy people for a reason
Message permalink: 710347637458599936
Shit, even with the worst projections at 2 million, youre still not at 1%
Message permalink: 710347742119067659
this virus has been around for like 6 months, it's been picking up speed in the US for 2
Message permalink: 710347743926681682
which, right now, is 6%

Message permalink: 710347991172644894
> 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
Message permalink: 710348025725452350
it kills 6% of people who get it
Message permalink: 710348088937807933
it has a lethality rate
Message permalink: 710348116712489010
of 6%
Message permalink: 710348125377921026
i'm usually an autist and start REEing this far in but ive been trying to be better about that recently
Message permalink: 710348221863559198
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
Message permalink: 710348520447672331
no your point doesn't stand at all
Message permalink: 710348586453303317
neither parts of it
Message permalink: 710348609094156298
the meaning of what lethality in a disease is does not change based on how it is used
Message permalink: 710348689029333063
literally this
Message permalink: 710348760290558002
the literal definition of lethality in a disease is how many people die *who get it*
Message permalink: 710348810106306641
so if 6% of people *who get it* die
Message permalink: 710348833082703913
it has a 6% lethality
Message permalink: 710348847582543965
who gives a shit what they're using it for
Message permalink: 710348883737444395
that just makes them retarded
Message permalink: 710348898417246286
it doesnt change the definition of the term
Message permalink: 710348922807255060
we don't say ebola has a lethality of 50% because it's thanos everyone
Message permalink: 710349112033411154
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.
Message permalink: 710349145927450634
we say it has a lethality of 50% because it kills about 50% of people who get it
Message permalink: 710349158640517163
are you saying that based on evidence you've seen
Message permalink: 710349219394748417
or are you saying it because you saw someone else say it
Message permalink: 710349240207015948
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
Message permalink: 710349368510906389
And further I dispute the numbers. Cdc itself adjusted the death count from 60kish to 35kish. That not a small discrepancy
Message permalink: 710349397619376168
It does not kill 50% of the people who get it
Message permalink: 710349427872759829
it was an example, gumper
Message permalink: 710349472336707695
i was talking about the definition of a term, not the disease mentioned in the analogy
Message permalink: 710349572529979422
Ok
Message permalink: 710349581896122380
I was about to lose my mind
Message permalink: 710349629908189346
yeah no no no
Message permalink: 710349650238111764
ebolas death rate actually kinda varies
Message permalink: 710349679052718081
it has been as low as 25% and up as high as 90

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!😅

No. No thing

Double whopper. Naked now
Message permalink: 710349909026537482
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
Message permalink: 710349919256313868
it's not to get rid of it

I do like meatballs
Message permalink: 710349982640635914
In subs
Message permalink: 710350028941557876
the point is to make it long and drawn out so that we don't get into situations like italy was in
Message permalink: 710350042510131311
With lots of sauce and cheese
Message permalink: 710350066115936256
you'll either have an extremely fast and unpredictable burn, or a slow, manageable one
Message permalink: 710350125020610641
What are we doing different tho?
Message permalink: 710350164556120078
masks is huge, and i've seen a lot more people using hand sanitizer and washing their hands
Message permalink: 710350247267794955
And we have better and mkre hospitals than Italy so
Message permalink: 710350278423216138
like those two factors alone are p big
Message permalink: 710350283254923315
"better hospitals" arent going to do jack and/or shit when you have a gigantic flood of people
Message permalink: 710350465157562371
part of the danger of this virus is the hysteria
Message permalink: 710350502386204763
why is slowmode on
Message permalink: 710350529707901019
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Message permalink: 710350652790014004
anyways, part of the danger is that when you have a city that gets hit really really hard like New York, you also have a sizeable amount of people who get 2 symptoms and think they have it and rush to the ER. that combined with the influx of *real* patients presents a very serious problem for hospitals
Message permalink: 710350748642181131
and then you have other things to consider, like ambulances. if you make no effort to flatten the curve and it spreads so fast that thousands of people get it and need ambulances, all of your emergency services are now spread very thin
Message permalink: 710350988447580361
and deaths from *other* causes will rise too
Message permalink: 710351089517461521
it's just no good all around, and if you want to play with your health that's absolutely your choice and you should be allowed to make it. but i will also laugh at you for making it
Message permalink: 710351214113587221
hopefully whatever vaccine they develop, it actually helps to eradicate the virus and we don't get something like the flu vaccine, which only works half of the time(about)
Message permalink: 710351445362343956
another thing is that this virus seems to mutate pretty easily, i think we have 3 strains already and we're only 6 months in
Message permalink: 710351596831244329
does *not* bode well
Message permalink: 710351679765217310
