You forgot to mention to get the press to stop calling the HCQ regimen (essentially) a hoax and anecdotal just because Trump was suggesting it. We need an honest, inquisitive press, not just Democrat Pravda.
Currently, the mortality rate is around 5.9%, higher than originally predicted.
Here’s a question. How many children in the US have died from the Corona virus?
The answer is amazing.
charts, graphs, glossies, with circles and arrows and squiggley lines in multicolor
And the hockey sticks, don't forget the hockey sticks!
I’m guessing between 0.2 and 0.3 percent death rate when it’s all over, but it wouldn’t surprise me if it turned out to be 0.1 like a bad flu season.
Unfortunately, the R0 for this bug is as high as 5 or 6, while flu is between 1 and 2, so this much higher contagion is why hospitals in hot spots were at risk of being overwhelmed while still dealing with flu patients. Something is hinky with this article.
(FD: I prefer we all start opening up in most of the country, if not all of it, right now, including most of Maryland and New York State.)
Just the CDC, bro. :-)
No, millions would not have died, that is nonsense. Most people who get survive it.
Really? How come we aren’t seeing 200,000 dead already?
Bump and so has the FDA.
sad, but I hear she may make more on unemployment. Which is probably a bad thing in the long run because why go back to work?
Sorry, I was wrong, we are up to now up to 7.3% fatality rate as of today.

many citizens failed - happily trading liberties and freedoms for ‘security’
My friend who had the coronavirus in January (obviously didn’t know it at the time but was very very sick with all the symptoms and at one point did need the ER) has two small kids. They got something akin to the Cole with fever that all kids always get. It was probably covid but it was very mild in them. Husband never got sick at all, and of course they didn’t isolate from each other - no one knew it would become a pandemic.
Not the China CDC, which is what Hoft is quoting on his mortality rate numbers.
You really need to understand populations better — You are incorrect and there is not a reputable should alive who puts the mortality at 7.3% — you are either declaring yourself to be chicken little, a screwball, or a fear monger...which one is it?
its weddings cancelled...its funerals cancelled...its all of sports and all the energy that it brings...LOST...
just read that one of our favorite places in Vegas a restaurant off the strip named Ricardos is closing after 40 yrs...one family ran it....
this serious but hyped crisis and its manipulators should be put in jail....
Mortality rate in Belgium, the hardest hit European country, is presently 15.71%.
You can’t argue with facts.
“You can’t argue with facts.”
Depends on who provides the facts, and how relevant the facts are. Yahoo news? REALLY? I’d rate them about as good as Communist China for info on the WuWHO Flu.
Belgium? From your linked article:
“Belgium goes further and includes suspected coronavirus deaths in its figures, while many countries will only count a fatality if there has been a positive test.”
Keep going....your analysis is either dishonest or ignorant. I am favoring both in your case. You are entitled to the facts, but not to your facts. And you are manipulating the data or being manipulated to make patently untrue statement.
As I said, not one reputable person, scientist, physician or news source reports anything higher than 2.3% which has been discredited already — you are playing with the data and it is transparent.
Another quote from the article:
“Care home deaths account for almost half of the deaths announced each day in Belgium and about 95 percent of cases were not formally diagnosed with coronavirus.”
