3% ifr is like an order of magnitude worse than the flu. it's a huge amount. almost 200 THOUSAND people in one season, in one country... you might be able to brush that away, but that would be fucking stupid.

covid-19 cases... even if you don't die, there's a chance of severe (perhaps permanent) other health issues.

huge events where tons of people gather and spread it quickly can easily lead to overwhelming the health system.

higher % of ppl die when this happens.

it is not rocket science.

The sky is falling! The sky is falling!
It’s gonna be ok halfy don’t u worry ur lil half brain anymore

Actually, per the CDC, the US hospitalization rate is approximately 4.6% to 6.5%.
Mortality rate is over 3%.
PS. In my state the hospitalization rate is ~12%

Good to know. Thanks. I’ll revise my posts when I have a chance..
I hadn’t seen much on hospitalization rates.. (although tbh I Typically avoid news about covid like it’s the plague (the news not the covid))
Mortality rate is over 3% if u only count confirmed cases (and even then it’s only over by a tenth of one percent) .. obviously there are people who get infected (and recover) without getting tested... even the N.Y. times is reporting some populations having as high as 40% asymptomatic..

So idk what those numbers are in reference to... those hospitalizEd with covid?


mowood...WHERE did you get those statistics....BLATANTLY incorrect!!!

Key Updates for Week 33, ending August 15, 2020
Nationally, the percentage of respiratory specimens testing positive for SARS-CoV-2 decreased from 6.9% during week 32 to 6.3% during week 33 and decreased or remained the same in nine of ten HHS regions. National percentages of specimens testing positive for SARS-CoV-2 by type of laboratory are listed as follows:

Public health laboratories – decreased from 7.1% during week 32 to 6.6% during week 33;
Clinical laboratories – decreased from 5.9% during week 32 to 5.7% during week 33;
Commercial laboratories – decreased from 7.0% during week 32 to 6.3% during week 33.

It's the POST-COVID lingering effects that get you- lung, brain, heart, vessel issues.

Agree with you, Amynamous....and that took MONTHS at Phase I to achieve. Plus we took overflow patients from AZ and TX.

The new CDC guidelines are the equivalent of an obscene Oct surprise.
They were carefully timed to result in an explosion of cases right in front of the election.
We are about to see things go South in a way that is unimaginable.

The USA has gone off the rails this passed 4 years. The amount of caring for others is gone when so many don't care if they cause someone to die.

Yes, right on and kudos to Michelle Lujan Grisham....possibly our next United States Secretary of Health and Human Services IF Biden wins. She primed for the job with her experience and savvy approach.

She takes a proactive stance vs. reactive like so many governors!

And yes, got chile from Lemitar. Mmmmm!

If I put a server in my bathroom... and my private bathroom server gets hacked...
Are those emails even stolen or am I just dumb?
Something to ponder
