New CDC guidelines say the mortality rate for people who get C****-** is .4%. If you are over 65 it is 1.3%. If you are under 49 it is .05 %.

whats the mortality rate for flu?

If you look at our population that’s a mere 16 million deaths if it is not addressed just the population of our three biggest cities. Who in their right mind would wear a mask to prevent something so insignificant?

You must have been taught math using Bill Gates' Common Core method. Will you please show your work?

...and if pigs had wings they could fly.

My reply makes as much sense as yours...

Isn't it a "miracle" that NO ONE died of FLU this season … we KNOW people die from it EVERY year but apparently NOT this year!!!!

He learned his math the same place he learned his American history. That is why his knowledge of both is so screwed up.

It's called Democrat Data Economics© -- mainly practiced in blue states, it's a way of saving space on computer screens and ink on printouts by simply incorporating fatalities from flu, and where possible other causes of death, under the single heading of C****-**.

One amazing bi-product of this revolutionary new way of tallying is that it helps increase public apprehension regarding contracting C****-** and thereby abets the continued repression of the nation's economy.

Win-win for Democrats who seek a weakened Trump economy, therefore win-win for their g*******t patrons.

Bidens good with math, ask him. Oh, that's right, he can't remember where he is. Never mind.

0.1%; same order of magnitude.

They actually stopped the count at 24000. My wife looked it up the other day and it shows 24000 to 60000? They don't even know. My guess is they started rolling the influenza deaths over to c***d deaths to make it look worse than it actually is. To put numbers to their scare tactics. That's how they roll.

Brush up on your math, dude: 0.4% X 330 million is 1.4 million, not 16 million. In addition, your estimate would be correct only if every single man, woman, child and it in the US become infected. In an average year, the flu only infects 40 to 60 million people and k**ls 40 to 60 thousand. If C****-** infects as many as does the flu (say about 50 million) that would give us about 200 thousand deaths by the time we're all done; sounds about right.

Unlike C****-**, the flu has not been a reportable disease; deaths due to the flu are often listed as heart failure or pneumonia, the actual thing that caused the person to die, so the CDC usually gives a range estimate. With C****-** it is the reverse; all deaths from pneumonia and many from heart disease are being listed as being from C****-**. A site that lists a single number is below, however, the number listed for the US (40,900) has not changed at all since the first time I looked at this site on March 5; its hard to believe not a single person in the US has died of the flu in the last 2 and a half months unless flu deaths are also being listed as being from C****-**. By the way, check the number of flu deaths in India 362,000 and China 92,000; deaths in both countries from C****-** are about 5000. Neither of these countries were locked down for the flu but both were (India still is) locked down for C****-**. I would have to chalk it up to media hysteria why a country like India would lock itself down for C****-** but not for the flu when the flu has k**led 72 TIMES the number of people.

That's a little over 1,000,000 deaths. You know, 0.4% of 350,000,000.
