He wrote 1800/380000 = 0.04 % NOT 0.04

Another math genius conveniently ignoring that unlike the flu, the Corona - at least based on what we currently know - isn't seasonal, plus current numbers are achieved during worldwide lockdown measures. No, permanent/long-term lockdowns are definitely not feasible/sensible, but social distancing/masks definitely can help.

From the start I said there was more to this because shutting down the entire world economy seemed like a massive overreaction to me. Now that the numbers are looking more and more like just the flu bro, it's obvious something more is going on here. This will possibly go down as the biggest scam in history, and most of you took the bait, hook, line and sinker. JFL @ humanity. Absolutely poverty species.

comparing the coronavirus and flu is stupid except for the severity of symptoms.

You can argue "the flu is only seasonal corona may not be" but you can also argue that people may build enough antibodies to the corona virus that its 1 and done for most the population, so it may be a non issue after most people have had exposure. AKA no where near as bad as the flu.

Would make it no where as bad long term but much worse short term

I think the key thing here is we just don’t know, experts are still trying to figure this stuff out, so doing a couple of X divided by Y on your calculator in your living room certainly isn’t having it all figured out

shutting down the economy is definitely an overreaction but the virus is definitely anywhere from 2x-10x worse than the flu and more easily spread.

Gates has openly said he wants the ENTIRE population of the planet to be mandatory vaccinated (possibly containing some type of digital ID chip) before we go back to normal, this is what its really all about, and I don't buy that he only thought of this after the fact since he was also involved with "Event 201" last year when an extremely similar scenario was simulated.

So just because we don't have data for a year for Covid lets keep things fair and go by average infections a month. That is 2,250,000 Infections a month for the flu.

Using OP's math to determine infections per month we come to an average of 2,500,000 infections a month for Covid.

So its about 1.11x more infectious than the flu based. That would fall within a decent margin of error going both ways to state it is no more infectious than the flu and about as deadly.

Do you know how many lives vaccinating everyone would save? Instead of thinking Bill Gates is against you, maybe you should look at the people actively trying to get people to stop taking vaccines.

Oh definitely, not arguing that, we just don't know yet. Nevertheless, the "it's a flu nothingburger" is about as retarded as "tour's over, we're all gonna die".

Yeah but the vaccine is merely the back door to bringing in something else based off it, also funny how he pushes vaccines as the ONE and ONLY possible solution, nothing to do with improving your personal inner health though diet and exercise or other types of therapies.

This flu hasn't really killed 60k people though. Look it up doctors are being coached to ignore major underlying health problems such as cancer on these death certificates. If you have lung cancer and catch the flu then subsequently die the doctors are being asked to totally ignore the cancer.

Yeah? You got some proof of that? Or did you just read a fox news headline and ran with it? We are having 1300-2000 people die a day with no end in site from it. We blew past the worst flu season death rate, and we have no end in site.

Don't you think it's pretty easy to independently test these things to see what "back door" chit is being injected? Vaccines are the best known solution. Diet and exercise won't do chit to stop a virus lmao.

OK what about the background death rates going up by an enormous factor? Also overreporting? People are dying in their homes, and most experts are arguing that we are UNDERCOUNTING and not overcounting. Until baseline deaths are roughly the same as those from the past before this pandemic, we really should take it seriously. It's clear the pandemic is killing the elderly.

Illinois director of public health said pretty much the same - the only qualification for a covid death is that the deceased tested positive for covid, i no MD but even I can see that a total fraud.

People get marked as having died from the flu if they have ANY flu like symptoms, you need an actual positive test for covid19. You can't have it both ways people.

It's some pretty simple math..

To start I googled what percentage of Covid cases result in hospitalization

The first result was this

MONDAY, March 30, 2020 (HealthDay News) -- Once infected with the new coronavirus, a 20-something has about a 1% chance of illness so severe it requires hospitalization, and that risk rises to more than 8% for people in their 50s and to nearly 19% for people over 80, a comprehensive new analysis finds.

Now lets use Michigan as an example to apply these numbers..

Confirmed
39,262
Recovered
-
Deaths
3,567

So confirmed cases are based on people being so severe they decide to get tested

1% of 20 somethings require hospitalization it stands to reason the other 99% don't bother getting tested. But to be conservative lets say 90% don't

92% of people under 50 likely don't get tested either.. but for the sake of argument let again just use the 90% number

and then people over 80, it appears about 80 percent are likely not severe enough to require a test..

it stands to reason the 80+ group are the smallest segment of the population but will weigh this a little heavy just for giggles..

so lets just for giggles say 85% of people who get it never get sick enough to require a test.

now take the confirmed cases number and compare it to what we know about the disease..

40,000/260,000 = 15.3% so to produce 40,000 confirmed cases on the conservative side will say there's really been 260,000 cases.. that's being highly conservative but we'll use these numbers anyways..

Now lets use these numbers to see how they effect the death rates..

With the reported cases you're look at a 9% death rate (3,567/39,262) which seems scary.

Lets compare it to our conservative number for actual cases..
3,567/260,000.. it drops to 1%..

Instead of using the exaggerated 15% of total cases resulting in hospitalization/testing lets say its actually 10% which still might be high but its closer to reality..

this would be more accurately reflected with the total cases being roughly 380,000

now our math is 3,567/380,000 which brings our numbers to .9%

Be we need to go deeper than this.. It's been reported by doctors that they are being asked to ignore comorbidity factors in deaths of patients with covid symptoms whether or not a test is ever done.

so of those 3,500 deaths its possible half of them really died to underlying factors such as heart disease or cancer..

so lets cut our number in half to more accurately reflect this.. we now have 1,800 deaths..

1,800/380,000 = .4%

which makes covid only slightly more deadly than the common flu..

And yet the fear mongering media has convinced us all to wear masks and stay at home, putting us into another potential recession.. if not worse..

Can someone tell me what's really going on here?
Did not read a word
