| numberwang said: Here is a funny thing, people in the US believe that 9% of the population or 30 million have died from Covid with 65 million infected so 50% lethality rate. Talk about a media pandemic.
https://www.kekstcnc.com/media/2793/kekstcnc_research_covid-19_opinion_tracker_wave-4.pdf CDC puts COVID deaths between 58,749 and 135,579 (excluding or including influenza co-infections) in the US. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/index.htm *CDC always lagged with data. John hopkins more reliable imo. |
worldometers.info has the USA at 153,230 (currently).
I wouldnt be surprised if the real number was actually like 200,000+.
(24 states, have odd ways of reporting deaths due to covid19, and only report if they die at a hospital and have been tested positive before hand)
How in the hell, could people (9%) believe it was 33-34m deaths in the US..... thats nuts.
Do they not ever both to look at the news? how could you be so misinformed?
20% of americans, think infections are over 20 times higher than confirmed cases.
Now CDC did say that potentially theres 5-10x as many actual infected, as the ones confirmed.
(probably closer to the x5 number, than the 10)
However thats still nuts too.... 20% of americans?
Im not even surprised anymore.
38% of americans still support Donal Trump and how hes handled the coronavirus outbreak, and think hes doing a fine job of it.
