NYC advised nearly 1/4 of their population has tested positive for antibodies. Their population is 8.77~ million. They have had 12287 deaths due to coronavirus. This puts their mortality rate at .14%.
However, given their propensity to categorize nearly every death as a COVID-19 death it's probably much lower. The flu typically has a mortality rate of .1% every year. This was the biggest overreaction to a "pandemic" that we've seen in our lifetime and people (China, WHO, CDC, DC, MSM etc.) should be held accountable. |

The death rate is still way lower than the experts predicted. Thank goodness. |

Even if you went on the NYC prevalence of 25%, which is far higher than the state average, the IFR would be four times as high, and that's if no one else dies. tl;dr version: your math sucks. |

It seems like any question of deaths could be resolved pretty quickly. Assuming that there's no other pandemic going on, and correcting for potential seasonal patterns, just look at the normal death rate and number of deaths, and compare it to what we've got this year. The difference is due to covid. Whether it killed a healthy person or exacerbated an underlying existing health issue, it's responsible for that difference.

A new mysterious virus coming out of China that is more dangerous and virulent than a well know virus that is considered very dangerous and very virulent with no known cures or treatments or vaccines, with images of mass disinfection of public places and hospitals being overwhelmed with multiple new hospitals being built to accommodate the sick and bodies pilling up. Ya what a complete overreaction. |
