Yeah, because that's IMPOSSIBLE!

the mortality rate for covid-19 is about 2%, and most people that die from it are over 65

k

Yes, at the same time, let us also remember that the numbers have been fiddled with. Either by not counting certain cases as corona death or having certain deaths be marked as corona. I have no idea why they do this but they do.

They do it as a scare tactic, and because it fits their agenda that Americans need to be shut down and out of work so they have to depend more on the government.

Agreed

Cool, UPVOTED!

Agreed

No it's not! It's way, way lower than that. On June 4th, the CDC estimated that the true mortality rate is 0.26%. It's probably way lower than that. Why? Because the number of unconfirmed cases is at least on a 10X factor to the number of confirmed cases. There have been myriad studies done on this and even the ones done in the Republic of California said that the actual number of cases is at least 10X the number of confirmed cases. Unreported deaths isn't really a thing, so only the number of actual cases increases. So, take the number of deaths attributed to C19 and divide it by (10 X number of confirmed cases).

Amen bro corona virus is nowhere near as bad as people are making it out to be

more like 0.5%

Actually, that depends per country [1]. And also calculating the CFR (Case Fatality Ratio) is a complicated beast by itself [2]. Besides that, even if it's about 2% and even if most that die from it are over 65 you're forgetting a very important bit. And that is the fact that if all hospitals are full with people over 65, guess who also are screwed? The people under that age group who have other diseases and or need medical care. Do with that as you please, but your comment is quite insensitive and seems a downplay on something serious ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Locking down the country increased deaths. There was a huge increase in suicide, the old people are dying of loneliness and depression, and this is happening because of a virus that isn't even as deadly as the flu.

I can't argue nor comment on the first bit as you didn't mention a country. But I definitely believe that there has been an increase of suicides. That said. COVID-19 is definitely more deadly than the flu.

Per an estimate of WHO there is an average of 650.000 deaths each year related to flu [1]. Versus the current death toll of COVID-19 which is already around 1.1 Million [2] [3] and climbing.

the country i was talking about was u.s.a. if you wanna know

guess what, there have been extremely low cases of the flu in Canada this year, and the symptoms for covid are almost the same as the flu's https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/688573017269469206/768711232010059846/16033454319695553930989126945438.png

why do people compare the coronavirus to the flu? they're completely different.

cuz they have similar symptoms and they spread the same way

TRUTH

only 0.05% of the US population died to covid. I did the math, not that lethal, unlike the flu which kills more people.

if people didnt take it seriously then we wouldnt have benn in quarantine for f**king 6 months

True

If we had been even more serious, we should have gone the way of Sweden and closed nothing.

Then we would also have more deaths

you do realize the point of quarantining, right?

Finally, a comment that ISN'T telling me the thing that there are low chances to get Coronavirus. Thanks for existing.

you welcome i guess

He instated a travel ban on China amid cries of racism. He took it seriously enough.

did he quarantine us properly? no, he didn't. the only reason china accepts the travel ban is because they don't want covid from US

Define proper quarantine.

XD

I gotta get outta here BOI.

Proper quarantine:impose isolation on (a person, animal, or place); put in quarantine STRICTLY.

Sounds a lot like what China does...

it was what china did

I take it seriously, but at the same time, I acknowledge that it's overblown.

Hospitals get payed more by insurence when its a covid death. Thats a fact. Because of that no matter what the cause of death it is listed as covid. I could walk outside right now and get hit by a car but if i tested positive then its listed as a covid death!

how about he wishes that those rules did not exist

Please watch “Plandemic: Indoctorination”

relatable

every teen treating it like highschool and partying.

i wish those rules didnt exist

not impossible

lol

Sweeden and Switzerland didn't even care about covid and they are doing just fine if not better then us americans.

And if you are healthy and over 65 you will be fine

covid is stupid and only a quater of the deaths are actually from it

True, but it’s still killing people either wat
