First the odds of dying from COVID were 1 in 300,000 now they’re 1 in 100?
🙄🙄🙄
The odds of a healthy person dying of Covid, if they contract it, is somewhere between 1 in 3,000 to 1 in 300,000.
So - the survival rate for a healthy person is somewhere between 99.97% and 99.9997%.
The odds that one of us will eventually exclusively die of Covid is around 1 in 100, or, as you said, 1 in 6 if you have underlying disease.
You can't say dying of Covid at 80 is a "1 in 6" chance of death.
It's a "1 in 6 chance one of us will eventually die with Covid."
That person may have had Covid 50 times already.
1 in 6 people will eventually die with Covid, if you count significant underlying disease.
About 1 in 100 of us will EVENTUALLY die exclusively from Covid.
Do you truly not understand that isn't the case fatality rate?
1 in 10 people who die, probably have a cold when they die. Does that mean that the odds of dying of a cold is 1 in 10?
?
Anyway, 1 in 100 deaths are Covid-exclusive.
1 in 6 deaths have Covid as one underlying condition, of many [i.e., a person who died of cancer, but Covid accelerated it slightly].
Do you not grasp this nuance, OAK?
Primemuscle doesn't understand it.
