ScoobyDoo appears not to want to admit that so far 1% of the people who have tested positive for covid have died.
What? It’s in the stats. There’s nothing to admit. Doesn’t change that your 1% of people with covid die claim is bullshit. That’s wrong and you’re just trying to deflect because you’re embarrassed about your retardedness.
By golly you're right. I did say "unlike the 1% of covid victims who die" when I should have said "unlike the 1% of people who test positive for covid who die."
the 1% of people who test positive for covid who die
Again you’re wording it differently because you know I embarrassed you.
I’ll tell you something because you lack a basic understanding of stats and probability…
You think that if you get covid, get tested, test positive, you have a 1% chance of dying.
You’re wrong.
The stats you posted are based on people who have tested positive. That subset of people include the most vulnerable, including people already in sick in hospital, exactly the type that are most at risk of dying of covid. These are the people that were tested the most. These are the people that skew the death stats.
The general population that are not at risk are far less likely to get a covid test recorded.
So, 1% of people that have tested positive have died. Yes. This does not mean that if an average person gets a positive covid test that they have a 1% chance of dying.
Taking a covid test does and testing positive does not change your probability of dying.
So, 1% of people that have tested positive have died. Yes.
Thank you. It's a handy metric for discussing the risk of myocarditis because the people telling scary stories about it don't dare - can't, actually - come up with anything similar without showing how ridiculous they are with their "DOn't Get vacCINATED! iT'lL giVe yOu mYOcArDiTIS!"
Since we're talking about it here are some current numbers:

Now we can kiss and make up.
