So a 40-70% number is being touted around the interweb as infection rates for the world. Let me quash that BS now while I care to type.
That is a number a Harvard scientist guessed at but ONLY if no action to stop the spread was taken, period. So basically fantasy, that's all goodnight go to bed.
Peace out let the media drive you mad with fake news.
dont get me wrong, i dont disagree with the fake news sentiment.
but its absolutely fucking incredible that its absolutely all we have to work with.
we cant even get actual lab stats on how long this survives on surfaces.
pence at least had the common sense to stop trotting out the word vaccine. trump, hilariously, still uses that fantasy to sooth his great unwashed masses.
so yeah its one thing to say 'stop believing the media' but lets keep it 100: we have no valid scientific opinions to fill the void with, and that should terrify absolutely everyone.

Is it an import if you export it and get it back?
6 deaths in the US already?.... is this fake news?
If this is accurate the number infected must be way more then reported.
Math is rarely wrong.

most virologists believe we have approximately 50k people infected right now.
we have done virtually no accurate testing.
- the test kits were faulty
- we had about 500 of them
- the cdc lab where they were sent was rumored to be contaminated early on
- mike pence is literally taking victory laps on twitter because he scraped up another 15,000 test kits on like friday of last week
half this country's voters voted for a rapture caliber act of god and by all appearances, god is about to deliver.

This is the time to leave an environment that is hazardous to your health.
Financial goals are no longer part of the pact. You've been a sucker for how long?
And now they want you to go to work, without pay, with the bonus of contracting
a deadly virus. But it is your duty as a proud American. Serve fucker Serve
You are the biggest suckers on the planet. Oh how proud are we gun toting morons
The dumbest. You gave your lives for such nonsense. Decades of fools giving their lives.
What's the difference between a single file platoon in Vietnam and an
unprotected civilian population?

Two cases reported in Fulton County GA. Great. It was nice knowing you all! lol wow I’ll leave whatever is in my DraftKings account to you in my will.
Upwards of 30 thousand American troops in South Korea. Whatya gonna do?
Bonus for any infected member of the U.S. Armed Forces.
They won't have to rely on V.A. services back home

50k seems crazy high.

6 dead if you extrapolate with other countries equals maybe 300 or 400.
But of course hard to know if these figures reported are accurate.

it does seem high for a country that embraced proper first-responder protection protocols fast and early. that has not been the case here. when the trump administration sent people to meet the exfiltrated cruise ship passengers as they got off their planes, for example, none of them were wearing protective gear.
also 6 dead seems like a low number but a) our first death was like 36 hours ago or something and b) if you dont diagnose a death specifically as coronavirus, it goes down in the books as 'flu', so honestly there might have been more deaths before it.
bottom line, taking the under on 50k isnt as attractive as it might seem.

4 States, 4 Airports, 1 Subway system in the last 7 days.
I am now sick, RIP.
Like most Americans who get Coronavirus I am not going to the doctor unless whatever I have becomes serious. If it stays light, I will just do what I normally do when I get sick plus have more awareness around not making those around me sick.
That’s how this shit is going to spread.
my biggest fear right now is having to step into an ER or doctors office for literally any reason at all.

Exactly! If I have just a common cold, don’t want to catch it with weakened immune system.

If you are relatively healthy, I think the play might be to catch it early, recover and get a bunch of antibodies. If you catch it when everyone has it you risk reinfection in that two week period while your body builds antibodies and you are just dead.

People have to work and it just isn't that bad for most. So it is going to spread all around. 6 deaths is a very high number given the number of cases we have in the wild in the US. I believe most of those come from that nursing home in Washington. Thats really what this is, something that will kill older folks. Those are the people who need to worry. Look at the demographics of who dies and so forth, you really need to be 60+ or have a known underlying health condition to worry about this thing. 80+ are the people who need to seriously be concerned.Exactly! If I have just a common cold, don’t want to catch it with weakened immune system.

Anyone laughing about 40-70% of the people receiving this will be saying that until they actually know they're sick. However, they'll likely never know if they had corona because it will likely pass. I am ok with holing up for a few months but my girlfriend has all this ridiculous shit she likes to attend. lol
