Chances of dying from an attack by a hostile angry private property trespassing homicidal illegal alien next door neighbor 1 in 2. All calls to local law enforcement go ignored. I’ll take COVID odds anytime.
” panel of 23 health experts”
Yep, ok, sure......
Bad math. Yours and/or the NYTs. It’s closer to 1:10,000 (about 40,000 automobile fatalities annually in the US).
However, we had over 3,200 CCP-19 deaths yesterday (we have about 100 per day for auto accidents, for comparison), which is equivalent to over 1 million annually if that pace were sustained, making CCP-19 the LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH in the United States. The trend is not our friend.
This kind of math is fun...
Say life expectancy is 75 years (keeps math easy). That’s 150 six-month periods.
So your chance of dying (of anything) in the next six months is 1 in 150. Easy.
0% for me.
USA = 39 per Million
(right up there with hopscotch when you are over 60)
“And crematories you can see from space (according to WAY too many people here).”
Actually, you could see the pollution from the crematoriums in Wuhan from space when their plague was roaring. All their other pollution-generating industry had stopped at the time - China was, briefly, not the world’s leading emitter of “greenhouse gasses” and had clear skies. They must have been thinking what Washingtonians think when it stops raining.
A randomly chosen US citizen has an average risk of dying from COVID in the next 6 months, that is by the end of May, of roughly 1 in 1,000 and the risk of hospitalization of roughly about 1 in 200,” Goodman told an FDA advisory committee at a virtual hearing.
It has been over 50 years since my last stat class.
However, any/a family member of 4 does not qualify as randomly a chosen citizen.
Wrong...families of 4 are young.
Americans have a 1-in-1 chance of dying
40 percent of Americans are obese which is a high risk factor for covid.
Younger people may be less likely to die of covid but they are not immune. Far from it.
“Chances of dying in a car crash in the USA according to the NY Times: 1 in 103.”
That is lifetime.
How can anyone die from the Covid 19 virus when HCQ/Zinc Sulfate and Ivermectin is readily available?????? The only critical issue is taking the meds within 24 to 72 hours after the symptoms become apparent.
Both of those treatments are highly effective initially but if you go beyond the virus load stage then they are not the weapon of choice.

That life expectancy is for persons starting at birth. You’ve already gotten past all the risks that could have killed you before 70. According to the Life Expectancy Calculator at the Social Security site, a person who turned 70 in October has a life expectancy of 85.3 years. https://www.ssa.gov/oact/population/longevity.html
(No thanks are necessary, but I just added nine years to your life. :-)
Masks will prevent 100% of cases
Given the false positives occurring with the testing, we don’t even know if that many dead people truly had it.
Given the number of dead persons who voted, we don’t even know if they’re dead.
They’re also ####ing ridiculous but the fat squad will turn out in full force on this thread.
WHO has a 1/1000 chance?
not me.
I’m 52 with no co morbid conditions.
A 90 year old with maybe a month to live? Yeah...very likely to die if he/she gets it.
And people here talk about FIGHTING FOR Secession or a CWII???
So many cowards bought 4000 rolls of toilet tissue and hid for half a year.
What a farce this whole virus and election and honestly, country have become.
