Considering 65,000 Americans have died since October 1st 2019 until now from regular flu, and there's barely 2,000 deaths to Gook bat flu, I conclude you're a fucking retard.

Not only that, but because testing is so poor, the rate of infections is at LEAST 10x higher than the confirmed count right now, which also means it's 10x LESS LETHAL.

>So basically it's a flu?
Probably(?). But the concern is that since we've never had it before, everyone will get it all at the same time, and tons of old/sick people will clog up all the hospitals. Normally the flu is just kind of going around in the population. This just got introduced to the population. Over time it will probably just turn into another flu-like strain.
Pic related is how I imagine it, but with a much bigger overshoot, and V2 being the normal levels we'll see in a number of years.

Also, google says about 7.8k Americans die every day normally. So, if around 7k Americans start dying of C-chan in the coming days, she's doubled the death rate for those days.
The total deaths in the US for 2018 was about 2.84 million. We might see an increase this year and a decrease the next year.

79400 deaths / 48.8million cases = 0.16% mortality rate

Average flu deaths: 30k-> 80 flu deaths per day.

Do you see a pattern?

In long term, total number of deaths has been increasing log-linearly for 26 days with a 10-fold rate of 8.5 days. This means that if current pace continues for another 26 days, you will have about 200k deaths in less than a month. How many daily flu death units do you think that day represents?

Flu deaths are individually verified, and flu cases are determined with a very high degree of accuracy through batch testing, and decades of flu statistics to rely on.

With corona the case numbers are fraught with guesswork because it's new and we have no idea what the numbers look like.
It is becoming very clear however that there's a huge proportion of people who have corona but don't realize it and aren't included in the statistics.

You are in denial. Italy had 68000 flu deaths in 5 years making on average 37 per day. Now they are having 20* flu death units daily and the number is still increasing.

While its true log scale shows success, it is not plateau-ing before we see close to zero derivatives in the log scale. Of course strict social distancing will bend the curve, but we don't know yet if it has been enough to bring avg r0 to below 1.

You and everyone else who compares the absolute number of annual seasonal flu pandemic deaths to corona deaths is retarded. Thats not how you evaluate the risk factor of an epidemy.

But yes, the epidemy is controllable. But even if we take the case Italy and accept that it it may be plateau-ing soon lets ask the question: What did it require and what will it require in the future?

The answer is: they've been in full or close to full lockdown for a month or so and the lockdown will continue for at least a month before they can be easened from place to place. As we saw in Wuhan. Lockdown still in order months after.

The follow up question is: Why do you think the US is going to be any different? The idea about being able to detect all the current cases and only isolate them is delusional shit that they are making you suck up to momentarily save the stock markets. Eventually the US WILL need to impose strict lockdowns and this is only becoming more and more expensive day by day.

The flu death is nothing but a fucking far fetched data extrapolation adjusted with questimated variables extrapolated again.

Besides, the estimates conclude "flu as cause of death" even if primary cause of death was a heart failure due to secondary bacterial infection induced by weakened immune system due to flu. In case of corona, the death is a result of primarily corona infection induced sepsis or other organ failure. We are not even in the time period of corona secondary infections because most cases are still progressing in early stages.

Of course. People die at home, or they get to hospital with an acute medical emergency due to flu but aren't necessarily tested for flu.

The lower range, yes.
But it's not even at the annual variance in regular flu deaths yet; which is 18k deaths between 2013 and 2016 for example.

Italy's serious infection numbers have been plateau-ing for 8 days now, so assuming the current corona deaths double, that means corona deaths will slightly exceed a common annual variance for regular flu.

Wrong, the corona deaths must be lab-tested using PCR or antibody lab test to be included in the figures. The only exception that is widely accepted in the statistics was a few day period in Hubei when they included 14K clinically diagnosed cases for a few days before the province leader was kicked out lol.

You are in denial: Pulling facts out of your ass to support their narrative hoping I don't have a counter-argument.

>Italy's serious infection numbers have been plateau-ing for 8 days now, so assuming the current corona deaths double, that means corona deaths will slightly exceed a common annual variance for regular flu.

If reported numbers are accurate, Italy does show significant improvement (unlike the US) but it's not plateauing yet even if case numbers were accurate. The longest decline in daily cases was 3 days, not 8 as you claim. There was a peak on 19th - 21th but overall the cases still do not show statistically significant plateauing. I would expect the cases to decline soon though because of the strict measures.

Also, unlike the US, Italy has been in state of total lockdown for a while. Good luck for extrapolating Italy numbers to the US. But also Italy is not testing everyone anymore and the case positivity rate has skyrocketed from 5% a month ago to 20% today.

>And this is Italy, arguably the worst-hit country in the world.
Nah, USA is a good candidate to be the worth hit major country in the world. Comparing the massive federation of USA to a relatively small Italy is naive. You need to adjust with the fact that Italy has been concluded to be about 10.5 days ahead of the US in community spread timeline. If you do that, NYS is already far ahead of Italy even without adjusting for age demographics.

Yes, how about we just let this highly contagious virus spread to another 35-45 million people. With the current death rate between 1-5%, we're only looking at between 350,000 to 1.75 million people dead. No problem, no big deal. 5% of current active cases are serious/critical, so that's at least 1.75 million people requiring hospitalisation and probably a ventilator for at least 2 weeks. With death rates probably going higher if hospitals get completely overwhelmed and no care can be provided for those in critical conditions. No problem, we'll just print more money and build more hospitals. The current hospital situation is totally fine and we're totally not already completely btfo with only 135k confirmed cases.

Just let it spread, it's just a flu. 1.75 million people is only 0.5% of the population, fuck em, think of my savings and stock gains...

You do realize the number of deaths is approaching 1 per thousand in San Marino and more than 1 per 10k in Italy and Spain.
That means 0.1% and 0.01% of the TOTAL population died already and it's just going to keep going for a few more days at least.
And I seriously doubt literally 100% of the population in those countries is infected, even in San Marino. It's still concentrated in North Italy and the Madrid and Catalonia regions for example.

You realise you can map a pretty accurate projection based on a relatively small sample size, right? It's not like they test all those 35-45 million cases every year for the flu.

Even if we look at the best case scenario, Germany, who apparently tested a large portion of people who were asymptomatic or showing only mild symptoms, their death rate is still 0.8%. The best case scenario is still 8x higher the seasonal flu. Since it's a new virus that we have no fucking clue how to treat, what the long term damage is and what the true death rate may be, you go by what you have, not what some random anon with a galaxy 8ball brain said on 4chan.

2. The US officials have stated before that they have a large backlog of cases and they will notify once they have catched up with the cases. This has not been done. Clearing backlog will look like plateauing cases momentarily. US has seen unnaturally large case increases in the past and not it's close to "normal". The long term international daily increase average is about 20%. US has seen nothing but rate increases of 23-49% which are unnatural -> backlog.
3. Weekend fri-sat increases have been systematically lower previously, probably related to work cycles or weekend habits of people. In whole US but also in NYS and other states.
4. If you go to the era with few hundred cases per day, those daily are not really statistically significant.


> most US states are nearly unaffected
Nah, they are just few weeks behind NYS.

Flu tests are not systematic and the death case is highly extrapolated. Practically all internationally reported covid-19 deaths are lab tested.

>The numbers for the flu are much more accurate after more than a century of data.

Lol, there is no century of data. There is not even data from recent years.

The whole current influenza season has 43k lab confirmed positive influenza cases in the USA and 19.5k of them were laboratory-confirmed influenza-associated hospitalizations. This period includes most of the influenza cases annually. Yet CDC estimates up to 61k dying and 810,000k hospitalizations annually due to influenza.

Besides flu 20 years ago is not the same flu today. One warm winter, implying lower number of flu infections, is enough to fuck up herd immunity and double the number of estimated deaths the next year.

people in NYC are already sharing ventilators and we're 3-4 weeks from the peak. imagine how many people will be crammed into overflowing hospitals and stuck sharing ventilators for weeks what a fucking nightmare. I'm young enough I probably wouldn't have any trouble if I got it but I'm leaving the city tomorrow just on the off chance I get sick enough to need a ventilator. I'd rather kms that be put in that situation. one of my gf's coworkers got infected a couple weeks ago and he is still in the hospital. he's 28 with no pre-existing conditions.

R0 is higher and no vaccine, there will be way more cases.

300,000-3.5 million dead is what we should be prepared for over the next 12 months. If the vaccine takes longer and reinfection if more common than , who knows.

Some modles have 11.4 million in 18 months but obviously government can run with that.

I do expect NYC eventually quarantined but it's honestly getting too late.

Influenza is endemic, it has been for 60 years.
Every year we can basically predict how bad it's "season" will be

COVID-19 is STILL in it's exponential phase on it's first year and it's "season" could be multiple years long.
Comparing this to the flu is retarded.

You are the worst retard of all.
Considering incubation period and the time it takes to kill someone from onset of symptoms, you cannot possibly assume that the mortality rate is higher or lower.
What we KNOW about this virus is basically nothing.

Of course you can.
Vast numbers of people with corona are never counted as such because they have zero to mild symptoms and are never tested, which massively inflates mortality rate.

Yes, this is true. No one really thinks Italy has a 10% IFR, even if health system collapse has doubled what the IFR would have been otherwise.

The problem is that some people who want to minimize this for political purposes are claiming insane numbers of uncounted cases.

>"Community spread has been going on since December, US cases are 5 million."

No retards. Community spread was confirmed about 2-4 incubation periods ago in a handful of areas. It just so happens that it is all those areas where hospitals are overwhelmed now.

Some Stanford idiots who do intro medical stats, not infection specialists, put out an op ed that literally said "most of the NBA was tested, and 1% have it, so we assume 1% of everyone in cities with NBA teams has it, that means x million cases and a fatality rate way below flu." Hyper retarded and would fail high school stats, right? But it ran in the WSJ and is being cited as a reason to lift everything.

Flu averaged 94 deaths a day last season. We have 525, most from a city of just 8 million. If you do the same sort of napkin math that Ioniadass gets his dick sucked for on that, you're eating 10,000 deaths a day eventually.

Fact is, no one knows how bad we will get. We need random testing of the public to determine true IFR.

I have heard for weeks how massively expanding testing will drop fatality rates any day now, and it hasn't materialized. If your model keeps not predicting reality, you have to change it.

525 deaths last night, bet 600+ tonight. We will be at a thousand a day soon and it's only matured in two cities so far.

What exactly is wrong with doing this? It is a good way to garner perspective on a situation...especially one like this where perspective is greatly lacking...

Massive amounts of planning and precaution is taken for flu season also...which wasn’t the case for this.

Well for one, we have spent 100s of years building an immunity to the flu. That is why we only have a flu season, because it is only able to spread in a perfect scenario. (Everyone is inside, the cold weakens our immune system, etc)

The flu is not asymptomatic for the first 2 weeks of infection, the flu does not lack a vaccine, and we have a lot of data to predict how bad a flu season will be as well as what needs to be done in order to prepare for it. Many people take these things for granted which is why they don’t understand why we have no idea how bad corona will be and why our best took against it is stopping its spread. ie. isolation or quarantine

Where the fuck did I use one sample size to make global projections? Why are you making shit up? All I said is that projections are often made with relatively "small" sample sizes that you can extrapolate to the entire population and it is often pretty accurate. So to say some dumb shit like hurr not enough cases, 99% of country is infected and they all have no symptoms and it's just a flu exdeee, is autistic af.
