    Any of you conspiracy nutcases explain to me the 5G conspiracy theory. I'm too lazy to look it up right now.
    they can't even explain it considering they dont understand the science behind it or an understanding of human biology they just watched a youtube video filled with nonsense like all gullible "woke" people

    weird how 88 countries have 5G towers yet 184 countries have confirmed coronavirus cases

    This morning, 450,000 protective suits landed in Dallas, Texas. This was made possible because of the partnership of two great American companies—DuPont and FedEx—and our friends in Vietnam. Thank you!

    New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and his top health official were telling citizens to take the subway and attend parades months after President Donald Trump restricted travel to coronavirus-plagued China.

    De Blasio and New York City Health Commissioner Oxiris Barbot took turns telling citizens in February and March that the virus was not as widespread as people thought. Data now show that the city is becoming the epicenter for the coronavirus, which has killed 883 New Yorkers.

    For those who believe covid is like the common flu, consider these numbers:

    The mortality rate for the common flu in the US is repeatedly stated to be .01%.

    The mortality rate for covid in the US is 3.40% (and climbing) according to Johns Hopkins.

    If these figures are accurate and applicable (and my math is ok), that would make the mortality rate for covid 340 times that of the flu.

    Punch US population of 320,000,000 X .034 into a calculator, and see what comes out.

    The .01% mortality rate for common flu may be in error.

    It seems it should be 0.1%.

    That still makes covid 34 times as lethal as flu.

    In any event, applying a 3.40% mortality rate to the US population (330 million) would mean over 11 million deaths.

    The interesting thing above covid mortality rates is that they keep going up for almost all countries.

    Last week, Germany's rate was about .5% -- now it is 2.07%.

    Last week the US was about 1.5% -- now it is 3.40%.

    Usually, those rates would go down over time because testing rates would go up and nonlethal cases would start to dominate the overall statistics.

    With covid, the mortality rates keep going up, even in countries with good health care like the US and Germany.

    For other countries, the mortality rates are much higher, i.e., Italy 12.67%, Spain 10.00%, France 9.62%, UK 11.69%, Netherlands 11.01%.

    The source for these numbers is the Real Clear Politics coronavirus page:

    You can unclench a bit. That 3.4% death rate is based on tested cases. Consider this:
    https://www.bostonherald.com/2020/04...state-mit-lab/
    446 test confirmed cases from an estimated 115000 = 0.00388. Suggests 1 in 250 or so case are actually getting counted in the infected count. Thus you can divide that 3.4% by 250 = 0.0136%...
    No, it's not the flu. It's slightly deadlier than the flu on an individual basis. What's worrisome, is that because there are no vaccines, nor previous exposure to such a virus (unlike the annual flu season), a LOT of people are going to get it. The CDC estimates that roughly 10% of the population gets the flu every year, for example, "CDC estimates that the burden of illness during the 2018–2019 season included an estimated 35.5 million people getting sick with influenza". In general, Herd Immunity numbers suggest that 70% or so of the population need to get a disease before herd immunity chokes it off. That in turn suggests that some 200 million or so people will get the CCP virus...

    I would agree that the mortality rate is skewed high due to uncounted cases except for the fact that mortality rate seems to go up even as testing increases.

    As I mentioned earlier, covid mortality rates keep going up for almost all countries.

    Last week, Germany's rate was about .5% -- now it is 2.21%.

    Last week the US was about 1.5% -- now it is 3.55%.

    Usually, those rates would go down over time because testing rates would go up and nonlethal cases would start to dominate the overall statistics.

    With covid, the mortality rates keep going up no matter what.

    Even those countries with already high mortality rates seem to continue to go up slightly, i.e., Italy 12.73%, Spain 10.08%, France 10.37%, UK 12.26%, Netherlands 11.01%.

    The regression to the mean just seems to ascend.

    No one thinks this is going to be Armageddon, but it could well be that a 3.55% death rate is going to look artificially low, rather than high, when this is all done.
