Coronavirus deaths in U.S. increase; official warns of many more cases
Despite an uptick in the global mortality rate to 3.4%, the World Health Organization thinks containment of COVID-19 is still possible.
I said no such thing, stop making up BS.
CDC’s budget has increased under this Administration.
You said it was impossible.
Not possible = impossible.
Spare me the BS…you’re not fooling anyone no matter how many times you post it.
What is untrue about the article?
Obama has just taken office in 2009 when the swine flu broke out. Trump has been in office for three years.
And while it was exceptionally contagious, it had a death rate of 0.02-0.08%.
It was contagious…not virulent.
CDC’s budget has increased under this Administration.
But not the parts of CDC responsible for dealing with global disease outbreaks
h1n1 infected 60m people in the US and killed 12k according to the CDC
if coronavirus were to infect 60m in the US based on the 2% death rate that would be 1.2M
just a little different scale…
Except it is 1.4 or lower now, not 2. Likely to fall to be on par with the flu before all is said and done.

Yes it would have been great to have a few million kits already produced and distributed but that wasn’t possible.
You just claimed I said it was impossible to produce even a single kit more than has been produced.
You knew it wasn’t true when you posted it.
Read your own damned article. They are squalling about a one time appropriation for combating Ebola that passed in 2014 which was about to expire.

Increased to 3.4% globally now.

not according to WHO.
World health officials say the death rate for COVID-19 is 3.4% globally, higher than previous estimates of about 2%.
mobiusptc: WildRose:And what do you think that shows exactly.
Expected and Known are two different words with completely different meanings.
The viruses spread similarly and the Covid19 is very similar to a number of our normal CV’s that cause the common cold.
It is typical for repsiratory virus outbreaks to wane in the warmer months because people aren’t packed into tiny, tight places face to face and elbow to elbow with other people trying to fight the cold.
They disperse and enjoy the warmer weather which reduces transmission.

WildRose:We have every reason to believe
actual expert recognized by the world over:
It is not yet known
Looking at two other deadly members of the coronavirus family, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), could, Bollyky says, help us understand how COVID-19 may act in the summer heat. “Past coronavirus outbreaks, SARS and MERS, haven’t really exhibited clear evidence of being seasonal,” Bollyky says.”The SARS outbreak did end in July, but it is not clear that weather. MERS does not show any sign of being seasonal.”
everyone say it with me
Google better
Google or actual medical experts…hmmm…who to believe here?
Might help if you understood what he said, which wasn’t that summer heat would kill the virus but that transmission rates would fall as people spend less time couped up indoors.

No that is not all!
There is no possibility left that we can have an honest discussion on this forum.
We aren’t global, I was talking about the US. 1.4 was in China, it will be even lower here. First reports out of China had it at two, later reports at 1.4.
from Coronavirus vs the Flu: Are They Different? - The New York Times
The true death rate could turn out to be similar to that of a severe seasonal flu, below 1 percent, according to an editorial published in the journal by Dr. Anthony S. Fauci and Dr. H. Clifford Lane, of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and Dr. Robert R. Redfield, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
But by all means, return to your politically based fear mongering.

the WHO is fear mongering…gotcha.
and there was no mention in your post about limiting to US only because if we were to consider US only right now the death rate would be about 7% (9 death and 118 confirmed cases)
We’ve had 121 confirmed cases in the US.
Do you think nobody noticed you had to truncate the part where he explained why that was?
