What’s the current death rate of covid for the average adult?

I don’t know where we draw the line but say less than 65 years old?
Yes, I’m lazy and don’t want to look it up and do the math

I read that in patients under seventy the infection mortality rate is 0.04%.

In Louisiana? 3.5%

Man, a 350 joke. Gets better with age

Last I saw it was > average life expectancy

It's like 0.26% overall according to the CDC so I would guess around 0.05% for healthy under 65 adults.

Lower than your odds of being hit by a bus crossing the street

Most of us are going to get the Rona. These restrictions are laughable.

Not being a dick, but is there an actual sliding scale that would tell me this info?
It’s what? .05?

Over 65 is not an adult in your mind?

So .0004?
No. Math isn't that hard.

Since there is not yet a accurate model to determine the rate of infection there is not a way to get a reasonable estimate of the mortality rate. The mortality numbers currently being tossed around use the number of people infected based on test results, and we don’t know if 1% or 99% of those infected have been tested since so many of those infected are asymptotic.

Pretty much zero.

On the CDC website they listed their estimate at 0.4% for symptomatic people with 65% being symptomatic. If you factor in asymptomatic you get 0.26%. I was just making a guess at 0.05% for under 65 people since Covid is mostly killing people over that age.

Do you have a link to that estimate?
