Why are the people who show no symptoms getting tested? Hasn't every states' health departments basically said, because of the shortages of tests, you can't get tested unless you show symptoms? Double-standards everywhere on this thing.
You are confusing the case mortality rate which is 6% with the infection mortality rate which is 0.7%. Note that both numbers at this point are estimates. Whether it is the flu or COVID-19 the number of infections is always greater than the reported cases.
For more information on he difference between the case fatality rate and infection fatality rate please see the following article. https://www.elitetrader.com/et/thre...more-lethal-than-the-flu.344034/#post-5085538
We don’t know the true #’s of people that have it and weren’t tested yet . All we know is the # of people who’ve tested positive vs died from it . Were not mentioned the 10’s if thousands of people that will have long term long problems either .
