Need help w the math koods? That's a 99.98 survival rate, and we're not even specifying this to young healthy people.

So are you saying that the cdc statistic of 99.5% survival is not accurate?

JohnnyTripsAlot said:

So you call me dumb but now 3 posts later you pretend not to understand some very clear words 99.5 survival rate.  Bud it's been posted in here multiple times. 

Edit here ya go, and this is pre omicron, the death rate is likely even lower



This is the shit I'm talking about you say I live under a rock.


I saw a couple months ago they were polling Americans and many people think half of the people who get covid end up in the hospital when it's nowhere close to that. I'll find some numbers and edit 1 moment.

Damn, your numbers keep changing a lot. The difference between 99.98 and 99.5 is 25 fold, and the difference to those way outdated number

you do realize you are starting an arument and then posting a picture of a stat that's two years old, right?

Again, this is from today.

Still waiting for anyone to find a current mortality rate statistic for people under the age of 50...


All stats on this are going to be manipulated one way or the other.  But the fact is there are no bodies piling in the street. I've been to my local hospital I've been to upenn in Philadelphia in the last month and I didn't see either one overrun.  My friends who work in the hospital say the same thing.  This big scary picture being painted is bullshit.  Goodnight guys.

What  is this chart even supposed to say to validate your point?


And from the New York Times?



I thought you said you were getting your info from the CDC??





And also, you're talking about one little town in one little state and your own observations there from TWO HOSPITALS and ONE story from your buddy,. ... and basing that on how the rest of the United states looks?




sheesh man.


your standpoint/argument is starting to look like swiss cheese.



I'm not trying to be a jerk about this either. You're just making very little sense/ not convincing anyone.


I'd be willing to discuss this some more with you, if you can be civil and provide a real argument.

Oh, you're one of the ones who lives under a rock.


Ok, let me lay this out for you. It's unvaccinated people like you who are filling up the hospital beds- while people having heart attacks and strokes are dying.... waiting to get in... because.... "it's just a cold" and " you're too millennial to get a shot"

"fight the power" right?


Ugh.




Can you even read? Do you hear what morrowasted has been saying here? There's kids, teens, middle ages dying. It's not just the old people.

It does look like the case fatality rate really is dropping off a cliff. Was around 2% over most of the pandemic and now more like 0.2%. So yes, ~99.8% survival rate currently, but that's for everyone combined and it's mostly the unvaccinated minority dying.

What would be good to see is a graph like this but with lines for  people with 0-3 shots to show how outcomes differ over time for the different cohorts.

Edit: The graph at this link is a bit like that. Not case fatality rate but deaths per capita for vaccinated vs unvaccinated. Unfortunately the US data is not current to Omicron. There are similar graphs on the page for other countries, some more current.

Not when it involves 4 mrna injections and it's my own life at risk. No.
