The fatality of coronavirus is less than the seasonal flu, media is making it into what it is, a Big HOAX!

The number is less than .05% and people are already getting it and that's why people are taking go the streets, they've found out that it's one huge Planned-demic scam.
dominusgai:


Bro, what part of the fact that over 60% of those with the virus won't feel/know they have it until their body kills it don't you get?

What part of the fact that only 10% of infected will show symptoms strong enough to warrant hospital visitation don't you get?

What part of the fact that the sickness is fatal to less than 5% of infected don't you get?

The disease is like any other one. I just recovered Malaria and I felt like dying, so feeling bad with any sickness is not new.

But to say everyone should be afraid because something is fatal to less than 5%.

Do you know more than 5% of people lose their lives as a result of alcohol, you don't see anybody moving to ban clubs as a result.

Many Americans believe in rule of law and will lay their lives down for their God-given and constitution-backed rights.

They are protesting democrats tyrants they have as leaders that are taken their rights away, most of you can't understand because you were born in slavery and still in slavery. You have no idea what it means to be free.

And take that back, the US doesn't have any number close to any country let alone highest, it's all a scam. Nothing is going on in the US hospitals, pictures from overseas are being used as American cases. Mannequins are wrapped as dead bodies and people dying from all other diseases are recorded as death from COVID-19, all in attempts to destroy America.

That's funny... how bad did it get in New York, Washington, Italy? Are people saying that the death rate would have been less without a lock down in those three places? I don't know what "greatly exaggerated" means in this context.

In the US alone, (from today's Wikipedia), there have been 799,515 cases; 42,897 deaths; 73,373 recoveries.
You see how deaths is over 50% of recoveries? Implying there's a lot more deaths coming, since there are over 500,000 cases yet unresolved (either in death or recovery).

Did you read how around 500 people died in NY in 24 hours for days during the peak? Body bags and frozen trucks for dead bodies? Assume people were allowed to continue mingling... we could easily be reading about 1000+ dying daily... Of course, people who are now saying "they greatly exaggerated" will be blaming healthcare workers and the government for "not taking it seriously enough".

Take a look at the graphs on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019-20_coronavirus_pandemic#Epidemiology
Notice the slope of the graphs, depicting the increasing rate of infections? Notice how it's slowing after the restrictions? (Most are in semi-log scale; now imagine if the plot was a linear scale)

171,249 deaths worldwide "greatly exaggerated"? And this is with stringent restrictions in place. I fail to see how it would have been better without those restrictions that have saved countless lives.

Sir, there are almost 800,000 cases, yet only about 43,000 deaths.

Now when you calculate the death rate to the infected you see it is miniscule. Of this near 800,000, about 60% of them are not in a hospital. While they were diagnosed, they were not sick enough to go to the hospital but self quarantined at home. Let that sink in.

Sir, death rate in new York on the average is over 800 daily. So if only 500 people die it is actually lesser than average.

Sir, notice those trucks used are specifically for the purpose, meaning they have been used before. And on researching further, I found out that New York uses trucks to store remains on occasion. Coupled with the fact that Families are not allowed to claim bodies for burial, there is bound to be overflow, not because people are dying beyond measure but because people are not allowed to bury their people.

As for the graphs, the first graph told them to expect over 2 million death even with social distancing factored in, but here they are now, with about 42,000 deaths and over 6,000 of which can be attributed to other ailments.

Sir, right now antegen testing is proving the infection rate is at least 300% than recorded. That means over 2.1 million people have been actually infected. That means the death rate is further down.

If people were allowed to move freely with social distancing, I doubt the death rate will have been higher.

TonySpike:


5% of what? That's the exact issue, my friend. If it's 5% of US population, then it's no longer funny...

US is about 360 million. 5% of that will be 1.6 million.

However, current antigen testing is showing the infection rate might be at least 300% higher than the official count, meaning while the official count is about 800,000, the actual infected might be 2.4 million. That means over 1.2 million were infected and beat the infection without knowing.

And considering the fact that not the whole population will become infected, the death rate might be way way lower.

Not to demean the dead, but a lot of those that are being counted as Covid-19 death might not have died of the virus. Yes they might have died with it, but not of it.

Right now the practice is to test for covid 19 after death and add the death to corona virus if the virus is found in the body. So even if an old person dies of kidney failure that would have killed him on its own, provided the person has corona virus the death will be counted as such without autopsy.
Re: Thousands Rally In US Against Coronavirus Lockdown Restrictions (Photos) by Truthcat: 3:39pm On Apr 21, 2020
Staying at home is unnecessary and makes no sense for most Americans. There's no good reason for staying home. The virus is not as dangerous as they made it out to be and people are not dying from it as reported, it's all a big scam!

Hundreds of people meet in grocery stores like Walmart but some people don't have up to 20 people at work. You don't lock people down and then release them to go and rush the grocery store all at the same time where people still get closer than 6 feet.

Commonsense though not common should dictate that those with compromised immune systems stay at home while the rest go to work. Some of us haven't stopped working for even 1 day throughout all of this. There is a pharmaceutical company I know with about 5,000 people working there, up till now no single person has been sick of coronavirus.

99% of coronavirus deaths in Italy died of something else and those people were going to die anyway according to doctors there. UK is reporting the same thing. Abeg na scam, most of us probably had it around January but didn't know then. I remember something that felt like cold but made breathing difficult. I remember how we were all getting sick in my family and some friends also complained of cold and flu, my sister could have taken something for it but I didn't take any medicine just chicken soup.

There is no reason to lock down an entire nation. Millions of jobs are being lost, and the nation is close to entering another era of the great depression.

Trump says the solution cannot be worse than the disease. In other words, the solution cannot kill more people than coronavirus.

If the American economy is allowed to enter the great depression, suicides would skyrocket. 7 million people died in the great depression, and the US population was much less then than it is now. That means tens of millions might die if lockdown continues.

Then there would be deaths due to other things such as hunger and disease.

So let's say 20 million people die due to a bad economy, how many would coronavirus have killed without lockdown?

Several Scandinavian countries have already opened their economies back up. Why? What do they know that we don't? Obviously they know they can't keep people locked down forever.

China has also lifted its lockdown.

In the USA, Democrats want the shutdown to continue. That would cause the economy to totally collapse. They can then use that to campaign against Trump. This is why Democrats don't want the shutdown to end now.

Big American companies have already began declaring bankruptcy. Neiman Marcus is one.

American people are right to demand a re-opening of the economy. THE SOLUTION CANNOT BE WORSE THAN THE DISEASE.

you are very dumb.. pls dont quote me again in your life.. tell me which country is comparable in terms of job opportunity ,welfare and human right especially.. tell me! and after considering every criterion that determines the best ;which country is the best ooo? una go just dey open mouth without thinking.. most of freedom and tech u enjoy today. where are they from? anyway I'm sure you'll still come up with dump reply sha
Y'all can nevee really push an argument without insults. You don't have to behave barbaric and impulsive because you want to defend America.
Here's a link to the top leading Tech countries of which US is not the first.
https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.usnews.com/news/best-countries/slideshows/top-10-countries-for-technological-expertise-ranked-by-perception&sa=U&ved=2ahUKEwiV1_KCnfroAhWQM-wKHR0iAX0QFjAFegQIBxAD&usg=AOvVaw0UfZkmUyUKf6reVMiALUau

Furthermore what I don't get is how many Tech is from the US that we claim to enjoy. Majority of the Android phones you use are made in China and South Korea, even Iphone components are made in Asia, so what are you saying.
And what do you mean by freedom I'm enjoying?
Is the US also Nigerian government?
Or did I tell you I was in captivity.
Stop acting dumb.
Now since you asked about job opportunities.

After following the link above, US is neither the first, so what's got you worked up?
Remember I said US is not the only country in the world offering all you behaving animalistic over.
