All you need to know about why the US Covid 19 numbers are questionable. |

It certainly didn't help the U.S. when the 1st 9000 test kits used were the wrong 1's. Cheers. |

People Die tested or not. <right wing mind>Of course. They help others. That is liberal. Bad. Undesirable. Don't matter.</right wing mind> |

Well, the 1% forecast is dead & buried! There are about 200,000 cases worldwide and nearly 8,000 people have died.That's 4% already. As it has hit close to home already, the phone call received by the missus just before midday, makes me wonder. I received 2 calls Monday, both the London & Bedford jobs have been put on hold. No problem with losing one of them as over the past 8 days, have done enough computer jobs. As for the loss of the 2nd, not so sure. As this "pandemic" really hits, will people allow others into their homes? Also, as the missus is actually on holiday this week, she was unaware her big bosses held a meeting earlier this morning & it was decided that they will only have really essential people in & the rest to remain at home - with pay. I can't see that this is sustainable if it drags on for too long. For starters, with schools being closed: Scotland's schools and nurseries will close from the end of this week and may not reopen before the summer, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has said.That's going to seriously impact working parents for starters. Also, what about their food supplies or will those parents introduce rationing & only eat at set times? Have to feel sorry for those in authority, sit back & do nothing only to find it is a real pandemic at which point it's too late to act, or... |

Well, the 1% forecast is dead & buried!The 1% forecast is not dead. The mortality rate depend on where you live. Every country has it own way to report cases. And they don't test all people. Some countries does it more then other. What's obvious is that the more people you test, the lower the mortality rate and vice versa. For an example the US has the rate 5.9%, China and Italy has the rate 3.8% and South Korea 0.6%. Needless to say it's comparing apple to oranges. To understand the scale of the COVID-19 outbreak, and respond appropriately, we would want to know how many people are infected by COVID-19. We would want to know the total number of cases. However, the total number of COVID-19 cases is not known. When media outlets claim to report the ‘number of cases’ they are not being precise and omit to say that it is the number of confirmed cases they speak about.

Writing is on the wall. School to be closed through end of year. People assume that means end of school year, not end of calendar year. I think more the latter. After all how can you reopen until every child has been vaxed? And the vax is still 18 months out. Same applies to all "non essential" business. I honestly think this extended shutdown will kill more than the virus would have. But those poverty deaths will be acceptable to the money bag politicians, because it won't affect them. |

It seems you missed this: worldwide. |

It seems you missed this: worldwide. No one knows how many have it, the lower bound on the number is 200K. Upper bound is planet population, less tested negative. The only example random segment data we might have is the testing of pro sports teams. They are getting a fair number of positives and the people have no symptoms. It may already be more widely spread than we are aware. |

I'm not going to argue, the original 1%, before "The Donald" put his foot where his mouth is, was estimated worldwide, therefore individual nations mortality rate doe not enter the picture. |

It may already be more widely spread than we are aware.It that case, it may be possible that the overall rate could be 1% or less. It all depends on when the virus runs its course. However, if what they say about it becoming a seasonal issue... |

I'm not going to argue, the original 1%, before "The Donald" put his foot where his mouth is, was estimated worldwide, therefore individual nations mortality rate doe not enter the picture.Actually the original worldwide rate was set by WHO and to 3.2%. However now may epidemiologists think that the figure is an exaggeration and that the "true" figure is less then 1.%. Strange though that the "Genius" finally start to listen to scientists and advisers:) btw. China doesn't like that the Genius is calling the Coronavirus the Chinavirus. |

Exactly. Sorry Jan, that is what I based my post on. So already, that 1% is busted & so is the 3.2%. :-( As already stated, it is all down to when the virus runs its course. |
