thats a 44 year age span. There are waaaay more people on the planet in that age group than 0-19 or 65+. So the largest population age group only makes up 1/5 of the people who died from it?

Even then I would like to see where you got the 20% number.
5 doctors dying within weeks is highly unusual. Ask anyone who has been in healthcare for a few years about how many doctors they've seen die from a disease transmitted through patients in all those years, or look up data. And this is AFTER all PPE and precautions.

"Fergusonโ€™s model projected 2.2 million dead people in the United States and 500,000 in the U.K. from COVID-19 if no action were taken to slow the virus and blunt its curve.

However, after just one day of ordered lockdowns in the U.K., Ferguson has changed his tune, revealing that far more people likely have the virus than his team figured. Now, the epidemiologist predicts, hospitals will be just fine taking on COVID-19 patients and estimates 20,000 or far fewer people will die from the virus itself or from its agitation of other ailments, as reported by New Scientist Wednesday.

Ferguson thus dropped his prediction from 500,000 dead to 20,000."

This x1000

Fitness is my area of expertise and now it's so obvious that 90% of so called fitness experts are full of chit and have no clue what they're talking about. Celebrity trainers for example, everyone would assume they are the epitome of fitness knowledge and expertise but they're actually the biggest piles of chit imaginable. So I can only imagine the same thing happens in every other field including medicine.

- plenty are asymptomatic and likely have recovered without people knowing it
if you got a cold since January, you already had it and recovered

the problem about this one is it's relatively high morality rate for the elderly and how more contagious it is. basically left unchecked, old folks will drop like flies aka Italy.

https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/69/wr/mm6912e2.htm
Although the majority of reported COVID-19 cases in China were mild (81%), approximately 80% of deaths occurred among adults aged โ‰ฅ60 years; only one (0.1%) death occurred in a person aged โ‰ค19 years
So 81% mild and thats leaving 19% being severe or death.
So doesn't say what % of the 19% resulted in death, maybe half? so 10% of known cases result in death. of the 10%; 20% were in the largest age group of 20-64. so 2% of known cases are 20-64 who are known to have tested positive end up dead.

This doesn't take into account those who already had health issues in that bracket though, so what's the % of healthy people?

Also it's assumed many in that age bracket have been infected, and never were tested because of mild symptoms, so the odds go down even more, and if you have no pre-existing conditions they go down even more. Hence how you get to a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of 20-64 year olds who actually are dying from this.

Is this more serious than normal seasonal flu? Yes.
Do all healthy 20-64 year olds need to be locked down? Not at all.
Should everyone take extra precautions avoiding and sterilizing around those with compromised health and elderly people? Yes.

That. Discussing the case fatality rate with this virus should always include discussion of age ranges. For those under 50, the fatality rate is probably about the same as seasonal flu - especially for those under 40. For those over 50 it goes up higher than seasonal flu and the older you get the higher above flu it gets. This is much more dangerous and deadly than flu for those over 70 and especially those over 80. That increase for old age groups skews the overall fatality to something higher than the seasonal flu(~0.1% overall CFR) so that the over CFR of COVID-19 in the end result is gonna be about 0.5-0.8% depending on a lot of factors. If the health care system gets overwhelmed then the CFR goes up as more older people get inadequate care and die compared to the care they would get in a non-overwhelmed health care environment. Everywhere the health care system has been overwhelmed with critical, such as Wuhan, Iran, Italy, and Spain, the CFR is a little higher to due overwhelmed health care capabilities and more people dying because of it.

Currently we probably have a hundred to few hundred thousand COVID-19 infections in the US or about 1 in ~2,000 people, which goes well with the 0.5-0.8% overall fatality rate given that we are just above 1,100 total deaths.

1100/200,000x100 = 0.55%
1100/150,000x100 = 0.73%

Total cases, total deaths, and death rate are all looking to be lower than the flu according to CDC stats for this season.

Its looking increasingly that this thing is nowhere near what was expected
How they gonna explain it?

-Trumps response was a disaster, luckily media grossly over hyped the danger (and tanked the economy)
-Media was right, but the Governments response worked excellently

Pick one DNC/MSM

Ultimately it'll go down as a social experiment to see how influenced people are by media.

Little push here and a nudge there and one day people are legit quarantining themselves from the world cause the TV said so.

When I was selling phones I came to the realization my job was just to push the people who were on the fence about getting a phone.

Some come in wanting a phone, some don't, and then the rest were impressionable and looking for direction.

It's the same with the public hysteria.

You have skeptics, believers, and those that can be swayed.

What I'm worried about is how many can be swayed, because you add those with believers and you're talking an overwhelmingly large force of irrationality.

So most likely the actual death rate is 0.06% (6 in 10 000) based on the only sample we have of an entire population group being tested. The death rate of the regular flu is 10 in 10 000. And of this 0.06% who die, 90% of them are over 70, and 80% of them have 2 or more chronic diseases. Less than 1% of them were normal, healthy people.

1% of 0.06% = 6 in 1 000 000

So if the average miscer catches it, your chance of dieing is less than 1 in 100,000.

To put this into perspective, that's still more likely than the average miscer getting laid

34,200 deaths and almost half a million hospitalizations in the 2018-2019 flu season. Corona's got a long fookin way to go. Let's hope Americans don't start cooking and inflating the numbers like the Italians have been doing. I want this to be a fair fight.
CDC estimates that the burden of illness during the 2018โ€“2019 season included an estimated 35.5 million people getting sick with influenza, 16.5 million people going to a health care provider for their illness, 490,600 hospitalizations, and 34,200 deaths from influenza (Table 1).
