    Our Peak week was 2 weeks ago, we are all still waiting for it, 4 x 4,000 ICU hospitals built, everything on lockdown and nothing happened.

    If no Peak soon and mass hospital over running death toll ( zero lives saved by Lockdown thus far ), then there is going to be hell to pay, if the public aren't too scared and still butt licking all ofcourse.

    4-5% of people ill enough to go to hospital and get tested.

    4% of the US 325Mil = 13Million get real, switch the TV off, 300K area worst case.

    Which is 0.01% IE NOTHNG!!

  4. If you measure the mortality rate by this link, death rate ~7%. Arguments about much lower rate make assumptions about the "denominator"... we don't have a handle on that yet.

    and that's what everyone wants, but we got a bunch of rubes here hailing the lack of testing and calling it an unnecessary expense. So we're stuck at home until they come around.

    No not from all Sick, from those sick enough to go to Hospital, which is very very few cases, likely 0.1% of population, of which 10% are dying so 0.01% of population.

    They've revised the numbers down a few times, try to keep up.

    ..... We have the current numbers man. We have the CURRENT numbers for hospitalizations, intubations, and deaths. And they were all off by about 4 to 20 TIMES.

    Neil Ferguson, the esteemed epidemiologist from Imperial COllege of London, of which the 3-4% death rate was calculated, REVISED HIS ESTIMATE DOWN 96%..... !!!!

    Neil expected 500K British would die from COVID19. Now saying only about 20K British will die.

    Look at all the modeling. All the modeling used WHO numbers and Fergusons numbers. Way wrong.

    Now, if you follow this closely, which evidently you don't, random pop samples in USA show an infection rate of 4% to 50%, depending on area. This means infection rate is anywhere from 10 to 60 times HIGHER THEN WE THOUGHT. This means death rate (%), is lower by about 10 to 60 TIMES.

    Think about it. Control the numbers = control the narrative.

    The media has us all under the assumption less then 1% of America has been infected. And the death rate is 40k.

    Well what if 10% of the population has it....and the death rate is still 40K (again, still a bs inflated number as nobody dying from regular flu anymore!!!).......

    That means the death rate is 10 TIMES LOWER THEN WE THOUGHT.

    THis is all fear porn. Like 911. FEAR PORN>
