cool ivanpost
they pay per post, I get it

>lung damage rumor
Seen any of the Xrays of people with severe cases? Probably not, or maybe just have no clue what they mean.

>number can increase to 240,000 dead in the next few months?
Few months? Maybe.
By the end of the year? Certainly possible. Depends on how people react and change behavior.
That's the thing about exponential growth, it gets going very very fast once it gets going. The time constant will slow under behavior change, but perhaps not fast enough

we are barely in day 90 into this virus.

>Do you actually think that number can increase to 240,000 dead in the next few months?
i hope not. the government has ordered about that many body bags though.
again.....the fucking current mortality rate is:
8,488 deaths / 311,544 confirmed cases = 2.72% mortality rate (USA)
64,753 deaths / 1,202,236 confirmed cases = 5.386% (worldwide)

we didnt really do anything to stop H1N1 in the united states. we closed schools only when there were confirmed cases but that was about it.
12,469 deaths / 60,800,000 confirmed cases = 0.02% mortality rate

if COVID-19 infected the same amount of people as H1N1 did then you're looking at 2+ million deaths.


cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/pinkbook/polio.html
From April 12, 2009 to April 10, 2010, CDC estimated there were 60.8 million cases (range: 43.3-89.3 million), 274,304 hospitalizations (range: 195,086-402,719), and 12,469 deaths (range: 8868-18,306) in the United States due to the (H1N1)pdm09 virus.

>like taking precautions is working
This. Watch this be one of first things people overlook after this is done.

>And we're going to find and massacre all involved.
I fucking hope. Someone get the sledgehammer.

You got some thin fucking walls

That's severe cases, not every goddamned case which is what people are talking about. They think if they get it, 20 yo 30% of their lungs will be destroyed. That's not the the case but you're part of the exaggerated rumors I've referred to. Grow up. Right now, we need facts, not your trash and false analysis.

>if COVID-19 infected the same amount of people as H1N1 did then you're looking at 2+ million deaths.

and i should say the 2.72% (USA) and 5.386% (worldwide) mortality rate is only that low because of the precautions that we are taking.
the whole fucking world is on lockdown.

at this point it just looks like you dont know what severe means.
severe = rare
like 1% or less.
law of averages...some people will survive but have lung damage.
