Pandemic 2020

You’re doing it wrong

you divide the deaths by the total number of resolves cases, not total cases

derp

correct and when you get that percentage because it's much higher you solve for X.

 

[UncleBuck]

Doesn't matter which way you do it... Garbage in garbage out.

It very much matters how you do it actually

 

[schuylaar]

Common sense says to divide total deaths by total resolved cases

no one here is your bro

we did say 'no bro math'..only reality will work here.

No, you just divide.

is math this fucking tough for you guys?

No it doesn't when the numbers you put in are wrong.

correct. when you solve for X you will divide..the whole point of the exercise is that there are many infected that haven't been accounted for.

Wow your a genius

no wonder you claim your strains have 232% THC. jenius.

 

[Jimdamick]

Just got the urge too stick this in.
Like I've said earlier, I'm getting weird ( is that an early sign of infection)

Forget about calculating a death rate. It is not possible yet.

ONLY A FRACTION OF ACTUAL CASES GET COUNTED IN THE STATS! MOST PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE SERIOUS SYMPTOMS AND WILL NOT SHOW UP IN THE CASE STATS. REAL NUMBER OF CASES IS MOST LIKELY 10-20 TIMES LARGER THAN THE STATS SHOW AND YOUR CALCULATIONS ARE COMPLETELY SKEWED. THEY HAVE ZERO RELEVANCE.

Yup, he and Whitman are also on my poetry list of must reads, and Edgar Allan Poe.
Do you like Asimov, he's on my list, alongside Steinbeck as being one of my favorite American authors
But it's a long list.

Asimov has always been one of my faves. Not just his sci-fi but his non-fiction too. Stephen king is also a fave so much I actually paid retail for his last couple of books and both were worth every penny. Dr. Sleep, (sequel to The Shining), and The Institute.

Time for a purge of books in our house again. Reduce it to a 1000 or so. Wife reads a novel a week at least too.

That’s a stupid assumption to make when it’s pretty clear when someone dies or doesnt

Absolutely

 

[UncleBuck]

Wow your a genius

No it just seems that way to you because you’re dumb

Finally some common sense. Thank you sir

what are the benefits of ignoring known data

 

[UncleBuck]

Finally some common sense. Thank you sir

Common sense means extrapolating from what data we do have, not ignoring it

The real focus should be China. The deaths and even the spread of the virus has all but stopped in a country of over a billion.
