If I have time tonight I may, but lots of mistakes and may not have time to go through them all.
This will largely be ignored by most here.
yes, tht was mentioned in the quote I posted. Again, for those of us who are not infectious disease experts, Tellme where that quote is wrong, or why it is wrong or how they got it wrong, instead of taklking in generalities
Well, you have plenty of time to post and pass this off with a broad brush. Tell us where the mistakes are, specifically, so I won't pass off any more misinformation
Feel free to show me how to figure the mortality rate. But I figured it the same way the world health organization figured it initially when they had done very little testing and they came up with 3-4% mortality rate. Now we have done lots more more testing. Especially in NY and that number has been holding steady at .7% for several days. I'm not saying we won't see a spike because that could happen. But to assume the people just being tested, JUST NOW got the virus is also not a valid assumption. Considering they have been on lockdown for over a week.
Posting a 50 line supposedly science-based item that has literally a dozen science-based errors does not make it other users' burden to go through and write a 30 line correction for your benefit. Other than reminding us to flatten the curve, this post adds nothing to this thread. And it is quicker to post the "error warning" than to fix and explain all the errors - hence I had time to warn those that actually want to use facts to understand - and I may or may not have time to spend much more time correcting all the errors. If you posted the world was flat, I might just reply - "no" - and not write a thesis explaining my objection.
Mainly because it isn't an estimate, why don't we call it current? Or most up to date? It is actually .8% at the moment if I'm being transparent which I'm trying to be. 210/25,665
Novel just means new. It doesn't mean it came from an animal. Also, the human body has no legacy acquired immunity (at least one that that this statement seems to imply). There is a lot of stuff in this paragraph alone that would drive a medical student crazy.
I will try to play my cards closer to my vest in the future.
I told you I'm a simple man. But the mortality rate is not a guess. It is simple math. Same simple math the WHO used to start this whole panic. My math is just going off of more days of testing in NY. Either dispute it with facts or move on.
Nice glossing. The quote says it is difficult to stop because of the way it mutated, not because "it came from animals".
