Where would we be if nothing was done? That is the question....and without a reliable mortality rate its impossible to say. Right now everyone is repeataing the 1.6% mortality rate...okay, lets go with that. If 1.6% is accurate, and we use Italy as our benchmark, then 100s of thousands of...

The media is scaring people, the same way they did with Iraq's non-existent weapons of mass destruction, its not news its propaganda.

Obviously no children at all have been vaccinated for cornovirus, and yet Florida has 0 deaths from covid-19.....there's only been one reported pediatric death worldwide from coronavirus.

I have never had a flu vaccine...MMR, tetnas and the rest, yes. And I have had the flu, it knocked me on my keister about 8 years ago, the fist day was horrible, the second day I was on the mend...day 3 I was back to work. When the covid-19 vaccine comes out forget it. Maybe when I get to...

I just read that the state of Florida has reported thirteen deaths to children under the age of 5 to infection....but not to the Coronavirus, but rather to the hum drum boring old flu. How is this not newsworthy??? When the very first known incident of what is known as pediatric death due to...

US now up to 3,148 deaths as I type this, we shall see if it gets to the levels seen during a bad flu season which would be ~61,000.....wonder why the media never makes a huge sensational deal about the flu, which is particularily deadly among infants....13 pediatric deaths just this year from...

Florida has had 13 pediatric deaths from influenza according to floridahealth.gov....trying to get the total number of flu cases for the state but its hard.....all the focus is on coronavirus, so 13 infants dying of the flu isn't even newsworthy, I guess the media figures those lives don't...

Actually no, but we'll have to wait for the data. The seasonal flu measurments done by the CDC use October 1st as a start date and the season is said to last between 22 to 27 weeks. I'll give you some numbers. 38 to 54 million infections 18 to 26 million medical visits 400,000 to 730,000...

That hurricane example is excellent, thank you....I think most everyone has seen a forecast like you describe. Typically there's a wide band showing the range...and the reporters stress how 'this is based strictly on modelling and can change day to day, hour to hour'. I've never seen a weather...

This is an example of how I believe the media should be reporting on coronavirus, from a Canadian's perspective: UPDATE on the CoronaVirus Pandemic in Italy Italys total deaths from the novel coronavirus has now reached 10,800 and will soon surpass 11,000. Experts are encouraged that the...

Give me an example? 24,980 deaths in Italy from the flu during the 22-27 week long 2016/2017 flu season. Current death total from Coronavirus with data having been collected since the end of January is almost 11,000. You do the math and tell me if you think Covid-19 will be 10x as deadly as...

For the United States the report forecast 2+ million dead if nothing was done....and 1.1 to 1.2 million with the mitigation efforts taking place....obviously those projections were way off. If the numbers get to ~60,000 in the U.S. then it will match a bad flu season....

Thanks, any death is tragic...but more so when its someone so young, hopefully the young will continue to be a tiny fraction.

If you have some information on those younger people getting ill I would like to see it please....from what I understand people with Diabetes are at heightened risk and Junenile Diabetes is not uncommon, likewise there was a 21 year old soccer coach in Spain who died, but he was reported to have...

I have no doubt a vaccine will be developed, in fact I think we'll see by Oct/Nov of this year. Assuming a vaccine is developed will you get the shot? For my own part the answer is no, but when I get into my 60s and 70s (God Willing) or if I develop an illness that comprises my immunity, then...

Its Dr. Fausci (sp?) himself who has invited comparisons with the seasonal flu by claiming that Coronavirus is at least 10x more lethal. For that to be accurate it would mean 10x more deaths from covid-19 than from the flu. So far in the United States the CDC estimates that there have been...

I had some science courses in university and was exposed to statistical analysis, but I do not have an actual degree in that academic discipline. One doesn't need a degree in aviation to understand the concept of how lift works on an airplanes wing though, nor does one need a BA in statistical...

If 1.1+ million people die in the United States, then the models will have been proven right. However even Dr. Fausci (sp?) is dialing back the rhetoric, now saying that the death total might only reach 100 to 200 thousand. He actually used the would "could" which inherently means that it...

The entire report needs to be put in the trash can, or if its in England....then into the Dustbin. When it comes to science the three most important things are #1 Data, #2 Data and #3 Data. This report did not have enough data to draw the conclusions that it did....so anything it has to say...

When someone says "prove it" it usually means they doubt what you're saying...otherwise one simply asks nicely. The level of both ignorance combined with arrogance is stunning in today's world. People hear someone like Dr. Fauci on CNN saying "Coronavirus is at least 10x more deadly than the...
