We’re Not Gonna Take It!
Who?
The Huh?
Who Gives a flying f what hoo thinks, says, does?
Funny they don’t mention the percentage of those who die from it. Kinda left out that little bit of info, didn’t they.
I don't trust The WHO ( neither the political organization nor the rock band), The Fake News Media or the demonicRAT Party to give me the straight scoop.
I get that everyone who gets it or dies from it is 100% Trump’s fault, but is that true in the rest of the world as well? /s
10%, but nobody in China.
It’s probably much higher than that.
In most countries virtually no one is testing or really looking for it.
There are likely four to five zeros to the right of the decimal in the death rate, truth be known.
The WHO still trying to make it look like they’re relevant ... why should we listen to an organization that consistently got it wrong?
First they said corona wasn’t infectious and closing borders made no sense ... then they said 2.2 million would die in the US ... and they NEVER criticize China
This bunch can’t be taken seriously anymore
So... over 760 million people infected and only 1 million deaths... Meaning this is less lethal than the regular flu... Thanks for the update.
Only 10%? Covid been running wild since February and only 10%?
We’re doomed!
I’m not a doctor and I don’t play one on TV, but I believe the percentage is much higher than 10 percent who have been infected. I’d go with about 25 percent. And so what? It’s bad for some people, and relatively benign for most people. Flu.
I just researched this.
To begin with, the COVID death rate is about 1/34 or about 3%. The annual death rate worldwide is about 2%. And we know there is a HIGH overlap of COVID deaths to deaths from other causes. But if COVID was 1/10 (I DOUBT that) and the death rate is 1/34 you end up with 1/340 or a .2%
Now, even the lying SOS at Reuters admit that only 6% of all COVID deaths are from COVID alone. They argue, unsuccessfully, that when COVID exacerbates an existing condition it and results in death it is a COVID death.
I am going with the 6% figure anyway.
So of the .2% only 6% are true net COVID. So you have .012% of the world dying from COVID, which is way less than any almost other cause.
Someone can check my math.

“...that roughly 1 in 10 people...”
I’d have to say very roughly. They are stretching the language disposal.
According to ABC (already been caught):
“GENEVA — The head of emergencies at the World Health Organization said Monday its “best estimates” indicate that roughly 1 in 10 people worldwide may have been infected by the coronavirus...
https://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/10-worlds-people-infected-virus-73427817
“May have been infected”(?)....”best estimates”(?) When is the WHO going to use science. So I guess guessing is real solid in trying to promote their occupation of health? And my “guessing” is about as solid as theirs.
Look at numbers: the world population is 7.594 billion. The WHO’s hope list 35,437,479 confirmed cases as of this morning with 1,043,150 deaths confirmed. (They need to thank the people for keeping the death number at a whole number ending in zero).
If you do the math, that’s “roughly” (equal use of words here) 2% of the world population confirmed. It also means that that 1 in 10 number is not even a valid fact or a good guess. Especially when you are working with science.
Mathematical realism: 2.14% confirmed 2 < 10.
Or are they saying the deaths that were projected didn’t happen? As Bugs would say, “mmmmmmm could be?”
