Here's your chance. Rhetoric and uninformed hyperbole is fine for idle talk, but for once, Prove it.

With a 99.9% survival rate it might be hard to tell.



The US has had 27,611,403 cases.
.1% survival rate would mean only 27,611.403 people that acquired would die.
As of yesterday, 474,933 people in the US have died from Covid.

The US population is 332,177,397 inhabitants.
.1% of that is 332,177.3.

If, you had said with COVID, I would have agreed.
I'm not sure they are keeping track of those who died from COVID.

Your track record is proving worse. Reports from South Africa say the vaccine is perhaps 10% effective against the new strain. You disputed my statement it would require new money for new vaccine development.

It's as if we have a government propagandist right here monitoring dissent, isn't it?

Everybody that is still alive are survivors.
Using your numbers puts us at 0.14297571 death rate or 99.85702429 survival rate so far. Math isn't that hard.

I will disagree though that 474,933 have "died from covid", which makes the survival rate even higher.

If the US has 27,633,403 cases, 474,933 deaths means a fatality rate of about 1.72%. The other 305 million people aren't part of the equation.

Except that millions have had it but aren't tested. Millions and millions. And then there's all the false positives. The PRC method was never intended to be a testing process.

True. The untold number is the people who had only a very minor case and they just toughed it out and went unreported.
