It works!
The age-specific "survival rates" listed in the post did not come from the CDC, however. CDC spokesperson Jasmine Reed told PolitiFact that the agency has not released any age-specific COVID-19 survival rates, nor does it have mortality rates available.

"Survival analysis is highly complex," Reed said. "CDC does not have the data to calculate survivability for COVID-19. Unclear as to where social media users are getting this information."

"We don’t have that data, so we don’t know," added Cindy Prins, an epidemiologist at the University of Florida. "And neither would the person who posted (the tweet)."



Why you keep posting false info? Why do you hate us?

Let me be clear, the tweet is obviously an attempt to pass on some anti-vax agenda, they also might be outright lying about the data. But them saying they don't have the ability to calculate survivability when they publish death rates daily is like having 100ml of water in a 1liter measuring cup and then saying you have no way of figuring out how much space is left in the cup.

I wonder if a healthy immune system cares about studies?
Immune systems aren't sentient beings, neither are studies. I have no idea what point you're driving at here. Unless you're suggesting kids shouldn't be getting MMR vaccines.

No point
other than immune systems are badass, they deserve more credit

and that studies are often skewed to fit a desired result

As far as the topic of kids getting coronavirus vaccines goes, I think it is not needed and a complete overreaction.

Not a mask in sight down here in Florida. You wouldn’t think Covid even exists here.

sounds glorious

50% still wear them inside their cars in Oregon

Rona showed me that humanity is much easier manipulated than I had previously suspected, at least in this region.

In the civilized areas, everyone wears a mask.
Then i guess people there still haven’t figured out masks don’t work. I wore them religiously and got Covid. Haven’t worn one since September and been Covid free. Fuck it, I’m living life. If I’m one of the .02% that dies from it, then I’ll tip my cap up Fauci & Wuhan.
