Well- you've no need to socially distance or wear a mask then, have you. Ta ta.
I ran a little math.
WHO now guesses that 1/20 cases have been found. WorldOMeters official cases is 44,217,862....x 20 = 884357240.
Deaths are 1,171,077.
1,171,077/ 884357240 x 100= .132% death rate.......far below the seasonal flu.
And the death rate is clearly plummeting.
This illegal illegitimate regime that runs America is at fault...not me.... they do not represent me and I have long objected to their crimes against humanity.
Well- you've no need to socially distance or wear a mask then, have you. Ta ta.

Wow. You don't see the monstrous hole in your theory? Seasonal flu death rate is based on KNOWN CASES. So you now want to take the death rate for known cases for the flu, and use estimated cases ( and your 1 in 20 is utter bullshit btw) for Covid. You are comparing apples and oranges.
EDIT: Current US death rate is 2.5% (8.9 million cases, 231,000 deaths) There have been 134,000,000 tests. If undiagnosed cases were 20 times higher than the 8.9 million, we would have 180 million cases in the US. Since we have had only 8.9 million positives out of 134,000,000 tests, that is a mathematical impossibility. Total BS.

Herd immunity is the number of young gazelle that make it to the other side. I was sort of hoping for something more civilized.
Color me naive.

Coup has started. First of many steps. Impeachment will follow ultimately~WB attorney Mark Zaid, January 2017
Nope. Math is not bullshit. I get that you believe in magic and voodoo, but in the real world, math applies. There isn't a reputable virologist who believes that herd immunity can be achieved with less than 50%. Most are in the 60-80% range. We are not there except in very small pockets. There is no herd immunity. No one serious believes we've achieved it, here or in Sweden. LOL at you and Sweden. Tell me again about their herd immunity.
Nope. Scott Atlas is not reputable, because he has no expertise in the field. You are not reputable because you have no clue what you're talking about. See how that works? Fauci is reputable. Atlas is not. Birx is reputable, the alien baby doctor is not. Doesn't take a rocket scientist.
Hello Darth,
It is only a topic of wishful thinking at this point.
The numbers don't lie. There is no evidence of herd immunity anytime soon.
Concart pointed out that the current US death rate is 2.5% (8.9 million cases, 231,000 deaths) .
There are 331,000,000 people in the USA.
If the R0 of COVID is between 2 and 3 then it would take between 50% and 67% infection rate in which the infections result in natural immunity.
50% being the minimum number, let's look at that.
50% of 331,000,000 is 156,500,000 people getting infected and achieving natural immunity.
2.5% of 156,500,000 = 3,912,500 deaths.
That's nearly 4 million dead Americans.
Since we only have 230,000 dead Americans, that means we are nowhere close to herd immunity.
There ya go. For now, herd immunity has indeed just been mathematically ruled out.
