that was the best strategy all alongNew Trump pandemic adviser pushes controversial ‘herd immunity’ strategy, worrying public health officials
what would the mortality rate be if we had done nothing and just let the virus overwhelm our medical infrastructure?that was the best strategy all along
protect the vulnerable and let the rest of us continue to work and live life
according to the CDC, 60% of the US population has at least 1 of those co-morbidities, so not surprising that only 6% of the cases are perfectly healthy victims@Splinty
what is all this talk about the CDC changing the numbers.
Im seeing that only 6% of people died due to Covid alone?
could be a little lowerwhat would the mortality rate be if we had done nothing and just let the virus overwhelm our medical infrastructure?
Just seems like quarantining the 60% and allowing the other 40% to continue living would have been the right way to go.according to the CDC, 60% of the US population has at least 1 of those co-morbidities, so not surprising that only 6% of the cases are perfectly healthy victims
Can you define "a little"?could be a little lower
could be a little higher
Could you imagine? "you're a fat slob you have to stay home"Just seems like quarantining the 60% and allowing the other 40% to continue living would have been the right way to go.
Is what it isCould you imagine? "you're a fat slob you have to stay home"
The outrage would be amazing.
Impossible to quantifyCan you define "a little"?
what if that means 'quarantining' 50% of our workforce?Just seems like quarantining the 60% and allowing the other 40% to continue living would have been the right way to go.
Well considering the current population, what would be a range?Impossible to quantify
We can only speculate
That'd be a lot less than what are/were quarantined.what if that means 'quarantining' 50% of our workforce?
it's like the last 65 years of data are a real thing.
but think about who you're quarantining...the most experienced doctors, for example.That'd be a lot less than what are/were quarantined.
