    You have got to be ******** me. The only way you get to that number is if you assume the serology tests are accurate (when they haven't been certified for accuracy) and that the death numbers are not being undercounted.

    And the speculation on the mortality rate in NYC has nothing to do with the mortality rate for the entire US is your argument?

    Alright man, whatever floats your boat.

    "No way for anyone to know what number is really is"...

    If you believe that statement, then you will never accept any "sold number." And thus, speaking with you further about this subject is pointless.

    I'm sorry I don't take numbers like 7-8x for vale for the simple fact that people just arbitrarily put it out there.

    You are confusing bacteria with viruses. RISK is not a good thing. Gays engaged in the risky behavior of promiscuous anal intercourse and got AIDS. Risk did not make them stronger. It made them dead.

    Coronavirus is missing from the list.
    If it would be there, it would be at the top.

    It's not a horror, calm down.

    Live in your world of fear, I do not care any longer about your feelings as they are so selfish it's amazing.

    They are going to try to track you using people (your wife's friend). Are you against that as well?
    Don't change the subject to search and seizure.

    Yeah. That's what Sweden is waiting for. We aren't there yet.
    But I get it if you think like Trump that it will just magically disappear.

    Which in the over all amount of the American population one million is small. How many people have actually died from this 50k out of 330 million.

    Does seem like months doesn't it.
    But 2 months ago no one was dead yet and a month ago only 2700. Then we wake up this morning to over 50,000. :(

    Flu shot is 50% effective,
    That means out of 1 million flu shots, 500,000 will likely not get the flu at all. Out of those 500,000, between 5-20% will get the flu.
    https://www.webmd.com/cold-and-flu/flu-statistics

    Of those 25,000-100,000 that get the flu, 2.8% will die.
    https://www.kff.org/other/state-indicator/influenza-and-pneumonia-death-rate/

    Meaning out of the 1 million individuals in the group, between 7,500 and 30,000 will die.

    Not understanding how epidemics work, but posting anyway, is funny.
    The virus is very serious to a small subset of the population.

    So everyone that gets the flu dies now?

    You have a serious lack of ability to understand things you keep posting about involving people dying.
