That would certainly skew the figures. no doubt! the true mortality rate has to account for all known cases and all projected and not tested cases. According to the cdc a couple months ago, they estimated the death rate based on that to be 0.26% (0.4% for just tested cases). This is highly skewed by the elderly population and the population of those with co-morbidities. the under 50 and otherwise healthy death rate on this was less that 0.1% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It varies depending by location and by the demographics of the population studied. The Infection Fatality Rate is NOT the same as the Case Fatality Rate, which is the number of confirmed deaths from a disease divided by the number of confirmed cases of that disease.

Florida hospitals aren't really converting regular beds into ICU beds to deal with the pandemic? There aren't really counties in Texas and Arizona readying refrigerated trucks to serve as auxiliary morgues? If the Covid-19 pandemic was a war, the 137,000+ Americans who have died between March 1 and July15, 2020 would be more than the number of American military personnel who died in any US war except for the Civil War and World War II ... including the Revolution, WW I, and Vietnam. In fact, the 137,000 deaths from Covid-19 is more than 10% of the total number of American military deaths in all wars since 1776.

Trump, 0. I’d watched as the president downplayed the outbreak’s severity and as the White House failed to issue public warnings, draw up a 50-state strategy, or dispatch medical gear or lifesaving ventilators from the national stockpile to American hospitals. Eventually, it was clear that waiting around for the president to run the nation’s response was hopeless; if we delayed any longer, we’d be condemning more of our citizens to suffering and death. So every governor went their own way, which is how the United States ended up with such a patchwork response. I did the best I could for Maryland. Here’s what we saw and heard from Washington along the way. Trump’s first public utterance about the coronavirus set the tone for everything that followed. He was in Davos, Switzerland, on Jan. 22, after the first American diagnosis. “Are there worries about a pandemic at this point?” asked CNBC anchor Joe Kernen. “We have it totally under control,” Trump responded unhesitatingly. “It’s one person coming in from China, and we have it under control. It’s going to be just fine.” And off the president went for the next eight weeks. The rest of January and February were peppered with cheerful or sarcastic comments and tweets, minimizing the outbreak’s severity and the need for Americans to do much of anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

US Military Casualties The only area of Florida that is danger is in deep blue territory where people voted overwhelming against Trump, and are very much do as I say not as I do. I do not believe the sky is falling crap because NY never needed a single extra ventilator, and only sent less than 100 to the ship Trump sent to help out NYC. We need to reopen the schools while giving parents options if their children are high risk, and we need to stop liberals from ruining everything by packing into beaches and bars.
