98% of the people in the US survive the China Virus.
The current fatality rate is 3.5% of those infected, New York City is more than 6%. Even 2% of he population means over 6.5 million deaths.
Again, how do you figure those percentages? They simply don't know how many people would test positive, so you don't know how many people actually have the virus. Without knowing the total numbers of infected, you can't know the percentage of fatalities. You're looking at total number of fatalities as a percentage of total tested. That is not a legitimate percentage to be taken seriously.
If 98% survive it means 2% didn't. 2% of the population is 6.5 million.
Yes it is.
And 0.1% is 327,000. The death toll of the seasonal flu is figured at around 0.1%, and yet they give a total of 20,000-60,000 deaths. So somebody's numbers are off.
If you had read earlier, I said it will higher than than 98% and I said it would be about the same as the seasonal flu, which is in the neighborhood of 20,000-60,000 deaths.
