I just provided the link to the report data, and pointed out the Fatality data, and stated the resulting Survivor rates from their own Infected Fatality ratio data.
Because if you’re not a fatality, you obviously must be a survivor.
You draw your own conclusions, and dispute the CDC data, that’s your prerogative.
If the Infected Fatality Ratio is 1: .054, that would mean 5.4 out of 100 infected 70+ would die, from being infected with the virus. So that would also mean that the other 94.6 70+ who were also infected, did not die.
Hence a 94.6% survivor rate for 70+ infected with the virus.
How long does the National Anthem last? What is the time ratio of that to the game? 2 minutes to 180 minutes… Insignificant. If you don’t like it, change the channel as you would for a commercial & feelings hurt no more.
I have no idea about this but would the fatality rate be any relevant to flu?
I think the chances of someone dying from flu would be lower just because the patient will have a family member present in the room. If you suffer from an unknown virus, no one is allowed anywhere near you and staff is not trained or too scared to take care of you. You might be on your own.
Easy to understand reporting and description of the Covid-19 case fatality rate can be found here, by country (you can select which country’s data you want to see by using the drop-down menu): Link
The latest case fatality rate overall shown for the USA, updated to today, is reported to be just under 3%. The case fatality rate is the death risk figure most reported in the news media, and is calculated by dividing the total number of reported deaths due to the virus by the total number of reported cases of Covid-19 infection.
Of course, that is a different figure than the true infection fatality rate, which could give us a higher or lower death risk figure, for the following reasons. There are likely more people infected than are reported to be infected. Including all the infected people in the calculation would lower the true death risk. However, there are also many people infected who will die due to the virus, but have not died yet. Including these people in the death count would increase the true death risk.
What matters is not whether you acknowledge official figures. If official figures exist, there is no disputing that they exist. What matters is whether you know how those figures were derived, whether and how they were statistically analyzed, and how the data and statistical analyses were interpreted by whomever publicizes the information. And it matters that you know how the official figures and interpretation fit into the larger body of evidence gathered and analyzed by people competent in the relevant fields of study. The same is true for any data, whether it is official or unofficial.
