I figured this out yesterday after CuHomo said 21% of NYC residents have the antibody! He should have at least noted me as the source:-)
We were told by The State Science Institute......
“The death rate in New York State isn’t 7.4%, it is actually .75%.”
That is assuming that they accurately tested and reported the deaths. I’m betting it is less than 0.37%.
Does anybody believe any of these tests right? It’s time to stop testing.
Talk about an inconvenient truth... for the media.
So the oppressive shut ins, locked downs, stay at homes, shelter in places, have limited the spread of the virus but at the same time it also limits the numbers who would have had the antibodies
In addition to being an “Orange Man Bad” election year, another source of confusion around COVID-19 is that schools aren’t teaching basic math and science skills. So people’s heads are exploding with respect to virus spread statistics.
We are now halfway to the lower end of the predicted death toll for the first half of April. The lower end was 100,000 in the first two weeks of this month. We are now at 50,000. This entire thing has been a hoax. We destroyed the country over the flu.
Remember back when wearing a mask was putting you in greater danger of being infected? https://edition.cnn.com/2020/03/02/health/surgeon-general-coronavirus-masks-risk-trnd/index.html
Was “shelter in place” really all that wise for people in apartment buildings? https://academic.oup.com/cid/article/45/3/353/359457
You can’t leave your home ... except to go to the crowded grocery store where most people are probably being infected. Gee, that makes a lot of sense. People are being arrested for letting children play in a park while criminals are released. Anarcho-tyranny at its best.
How many people are going to die in the economic collapse and upheaval that is coming? Will those responsible even be called out? This is not going to be pretty.
The second thing is, I just want to reiterate what Dr. Birx said about New York. It's a very serious situation. They've suffered terribly through no fault of their own. But what we're seeing now is that, understandably, people want to get out of New York. They're going to Florida. They're going to Long Island. They're going to different places.Coronavirus Task Force Briefing - March 24, 2020The idea, if you look at the statistics, it's disturbing. About one per thousand of these individuals are infected. That's about 8 to 10 times more than in other areas, which means when they go to another place, for their own safety, they've got to be careful, monitor themselves.
A 5 day course of HCQ 200mg po q12h (10 tabs) costs ~$2.50.
Elimination half-life ~6 weeks.
21% of people in groceries have the antibody, not 21% of people staying home. They are sorting themselves into low and high risk. You will be measuring a disproportionate number of people who go out often instead of only once a week.
No sensible scientist or doctor said that the death rate was 7.5%. It has been well understood that tested cases are a small fraction of true infections.
Here’s the single best video I’ve seen on Covid 19 -if you watch first 9-10 minute you get gist.
Those of us in data analytics have been saying for some time either the infection rate the Basic Reproduction Number (R0) is wrong or the fatality rate is wrong. Otherwise millions would be dead already. Turns out it is the fatality rate. see video for a fact based study/analysi by MD Dan Erickson, who with his partner has done half of the test in Kern County
This is the 5th study that confirms this, much lower fatality rate 1) First Iceland that randomly tested people in the population then 2) Stanford study of Santa Cruz, 3) USC Study and even yesterday even 4) NY. Governor Andrew Cuomo Cumo said a preliminary survey of New York state residents found that nearly 14% of those tested had antibodies against the novel coronavirus, suggesting that some 2.7 million may already have been infected.
And even Public Health Director Barbara Ferrer said of the USC study, “the study suggests that 0.1 percent to 0.2 percent of people infected by the virus will die, which would make COVID-19 only somewhat more deadly than the seasonal flu”. That finding is consistent with the results of an earlier antibody study in Santa Clara County. “The mortality rate now has dropped a lot,” Ferrer conceded.
The only citation for a 95% reduction in death rate in Brazil is a verbal claim by Dr. Zelenko on McCullough’s program that a few hospitals in Brazil following Zelenko’s protocol have achieved those results.
There are no studies to that effect nor any English language news articles that I can find.
Also Zelenko says a write-up of his and some other doctors results will be published this week. Hasn’t happened yet.
Y2k/Coronavirus
Take away the outbreak in the NYC and North Jersey region,the statistics are quite different also. It also shines light on this continuing Flu vs Corona. Both have similarities and can overlap. At this point,I have zero interest in fighting that debate as Corona has turned into a weaponized crisis that has destroyed our nation and people.
