Rob Kirby,
Thanks for your insights. I’m of the opinion that the powers that be are trying to infect the entire population of the U.S. as quickly as possible so they can restart the economy sooner. Fauci’s 3 month wait to inform people that they should ‘mask up’ is proof enough. The phony 1% kill rate has been used to calm the masses when they needed to be prepping. Being prepared would have slowed the virus. Consider that in the last couple of weeks the number of recovered patients to patients that have died was 17% killed 83% recovered. It’s been jumping a percent every few days and as of today it’s 20% killed and 80% recovered. This should be a stark enough info to raise real concerns about the reported and estimated kill rate.
The argument used by those that perpetrate the 1% kill rate is that so many unreported cases are the reasons that they can inflate the total number of infected while at the same time lowering the bogus kill rate.
There is a mathematical means to debunk this low kill rate. Consider this:
the numbers are moving but recently, every 6 days the total kill rate doubled. At the same time the total number of infections has been doubling every 3 days. For a statistician to believe the accuracy of this, he would tell other observers that both the kill rate and the infected rate should be increasing at roughly the same rate. To simplify, for these numbers to more believable, the total infected number should be double what it is now so that the percentages are rising in tandem. Here is the kicker, scientist seem to be creating their model to determine the kill rate by injecting about 86% of unreported cases to produce their mythical kill rate. Look at the difference their model creates.
If 86% extra number of infected is added to the total number of infected, it stands to reason that only 14% of all cases are being counted as confirmed cases. If it’s necessary to make the numbers closer to correct, by reverse calculations of numbers, it would follow that doubling the total infected number would be the same as saying 1000 are infected with the virus but that number should be doubled to 2000 in order to track the doubling rate of the killed. On the other hand, if 86% is the number as missing from their equation it requires a much, much larger number for the equation to work. The main street media is telling us that since 86% are going unreported the kill rate is higher. In the more honest scenario the number of infected is only low by 50% higher than the total reported cases (1000 would become 2000). In their phony math, 1000 turns into a number that dwarfs 2000. Check my math, but to agree that 86% are missing before calculating the kill rate, it allows the sneaky scientist to inflate that 1000 number of confirmed cases to a number closer to about 6 times 1000. 6000 versus 2000… Sorry for my poor verbal skills but I think anyone that is willing to think about what I’m trying to get across will agree we are being fed lies.
