The Coronavirus, not the beer

That's irrelevant to the IFR. Moving the goalposts again I see.

It's not a move. It's getting new information and determining the important metrics. Keep up.

Once we found out that a huge subset of the population is essentially death risk free that changes a lot.

Ugh....I want to believe this so bad. Confirmation bias raging.

Lockdowns useless....


China data :(
 
Meta (back in late March): 500k potentially dead with 100 million infections. Why do you want to genocide the elderly?

How is this new data? Or even relevant? Common sense tells you are more likely to get it from people you come into contact with frequently like your family, co-workers, neighbors, or school mates and not some stranger walking down the streeet.

Which would give you what conclusion on lockdowns?

Looks like many believe this number is much higher in actuality.

Good sign.

Maybe up to 35% infection rate in NYC.

That if you do get it, you are super likely to get it from people you come in contact with everyday, like your family, co-workers, neighbors, or school mates.

Unless you've reversed course and are now saying it isn't super contagious.

More time indoors with the contagion is bad.

Not sure where you are seeing that, but even if the highest estimate of 35% were true, IFR of confirmed deaths would also be nearly .4% and climbing. Considering NYC unofficial death count is nearly 15K, you are also looking at .5% death rate.

I expect lots of 'playing' with the death count.

Still doesn't change the fact that almost half the population (maybe more) does not have a .5% chance of dying from the virus.

Putting even 1/3 of the population at serious risk of hospitalization or death doesn't sound any better.
