US Kung Flu Death Rate almost cut in half.

[meaner gene]

The bad news is the infection rate has quadrupled..

Um, our testing numbers have gone up ten fold, Moron.

Testing doesn't produce cases, it only finds the cases you have.

More testing is like opening your eyes wider. It only makes what you see clearer

More testing is the key to doing things safely.

Trump thinks we could cut down the number of cases, and the number of hospitalizations and even the number of deaths if we just stopped testing.

More testing means driving up the numbers, which is the only reason TDS morons are always whining about it.

It would definitely cut down the number of cases, numskull. If you test 100,000 people randomly and get 10,000 positives, then if you test 130,000 people randomly you will get 13,000 positives, with no actual change in the infection rate.

Idiots like you are counting on the American people to be too stupid to understand that.

Testing has no effect on the number of hospitalizations, or the number of deaths.

Apparently they don't teach science where you come from.

It's like playing "battleship"

Firing more shots, doesn't increase the number of battleships on the board.

We were at a high of 5.8%, now we are down to 3.1%.

You won't hear this on the Fake News outlets.

That is because the US death rate is currently 6%.

The death rate is currently 0.05 %

Lying about who has covid affects it a great deal.

Read the op. You're making yourself look stupid. The "death rate" is the number of fatalities vs the number of cases. Not vs the population.

Approaching 160,000 deaths...the new american dream

FAKE NEWS!

You know that when somebody presents to the hospital, they get tested. So the doctors know whether to put them in the COVID ward, or in the non-COVID ward.

So even if we stopped all non-hospital testing, the number of hospitalizations and the number of deaths would NOT change.

 

[edthecynic]

WTF are you people talking about? 6% of what?

We were NEVER looking at 20,000,000 deaths no matter what the spin.
And not 10,000,000 either.

Sweet Jesus!

How many HAVE died if you even count co-morbidity? .04%
Do facts even matter?

Obviously not to you!

Testing allows a worker to not be at work. People who test positive should not be allowed to work for at least 3 weeks. It keeps others safer.

That's not the real death rate. That's the TDS moron death rate. Even if you used the number of cases, only the number of actual cases to have a realistic result. The number of cases produced by testing is a small subset of that.

How far back do you have to go back to make that lie true, March or April??

Sure it would. How would the hospital blame your death on Covid without testing? Oh . . . . you mean the way they do now?
