I hope you are right. It may be in an effort to dissuade panic. SK and JP were very aggressive upfront though.

Well, China is surely lying like crazy. That’s what commies do. But millions dead? Death rate higher than they’re telling us? No, that’s silly. The Diamond Princess cruise ship was quarantined with all on board. They had roughly:
- 3,000 on board
- 640 TOTAL cases
- 300 Cases with ANY symptoms (In other words, less than half the infected knew they had it)
- 8 Deaths (about 1.25%. It will go a little higher, and might end up as high as 2%)
- average age on board was 58!!!!
- 33% (1,000 people!) were over 70.
The actual death rate will be below 1%. This was apparent a week ago.

then why aren't we seeing that here?

So you really think we are in the process of shutting down the entire planet because around 9,000 people died? That simply doesn't make sense to me in any way. There has got to be more about this than we know that they aren't telling us.

A hot take by people who dont have any connections to china.

I think everything else you post is some batshit crazy conspiracy theory so this probably is as well

China quit testing and reporting to CDC officially on March 2nd. CDC was asked to leave the country. We will never know what has really happened there NK or Russia. All are off limits to CDC

Yea. That is a definite no. The numbers say that theyve had a lil over 3,000 deaths with 70,000 recovered.
Now I don't believe those numbers. Deaths is probably closer to 5 and maybe even 10k.
But to make a jump from 3k to 1 mill is a completely illogical jump.

Has Honkus given an update from his wife's family lately? That would be a good, first person, account.

No - I have a sales and service team in China and this is not true. They are beginning to get back to normal and even doing their jobs. Hong Kong too.
Italy - another story altogether...

Ok...
once again, this virus has been here in the US, and other places, for several months now
if it was that deadly, we would know
I realize you are an antivaxxer and conspiracy tard, but there is simple no evidence that millions of people died in China

I'm not saying that they did or didn't but people need to remember we are dealing with really big numbers. A couple million sounds outrageous and unthinkable but remember China has over a billion people. So now a couple million isn't really a huge number on that scale. I don't think most people can comprehend deaths beyond 100,000 (Tiger Stadium) so they seem to automatically dismiss fatality estimates that move beyond that scale.

Yea I just looked at the numbers. If they are accurate, as of today there have been 11,271 deaths. Italy alone accounts for 4,032 deaths. That is absolutely insane. Italy alone accounts for more than 1/3 of all Coronavirus deaths.
That is incomprehensible to me.

quote:Pretty much nailed it. The Stanford epidemiologist (Dr. Ioannidis) extended the Diamond Princess numbers onto the US population and it came out to .125%. Since the sample size was small that could be 5x more or less, so his estimated CFR range is .05% - .625%. That is a BIG range, but without mass testing EVERYBODY, not just the elderly and sick, its the best we can do.

If Iceland's random general population testing numbers are correct, Dr. Ioannidis's .05% number is looking very realistic. Basically the same number as seasonal flu.
