Indeed, counting the death rate of a virus during a pandemic as a fraction of a total population rather than as a fraction of those that have been infected is bizarre, that death rate can only increase as the disease spreads.

. . .almost all the deaths have occurred not in the general population but within long term medical health facilities for the elderly.
LTMCFs account for 53% of deaths, the rest of the population 47% of deaths, you and I obviously have different understandings of the meaning of “almost all”.

She was admitted to the ICU in late February, and spent 17 days on a ventilator. Her house mate, in her 50’s, also got it and was quite sick for several days, but didn’t need to go to the hospital. Both recovered and are doing fine now. Confirmation that getting this while old and frail is bad, but it’s “old, frail, and already on death’s row” that is the killer.

Facts? All a waist of time. Just a bunch of high IQ nerds arguing about “numbers” and “facts”, make them say / interpret them to say what ever it is that you want them to say.

I think it has been well established at this point that its only this headline below that is what is really important for the country to understand. And that it is Trump that is the reason that this death number, accurate or not, is what it is. That is what the Democrat leadership and their media talking heads hope any way.

And IMO this will fail, especially if the Democrats remain staunchly behind Joe Biden for president. At this point that is just an unspoken joke for the Democrat leadership. Do they really believe that a majority of Americans are as insanely against Trump as they are that the people will cancel their common sense and elect Biden as president?

Total delusion.
