2017-2018 45 million flu illnesses, 21 million flu-associated medical visits, 810,000 flu-related hospitalizations, and 61,000 flu-associated deaths

And we've shut the entire country down, and so far were only at 34K deaths.

Someone's got some 'splainin' to do Lucy !

Please explain.

We shut down the 'ENTIRE' economy? LOL.
90% + are still working.

I've cited that death toll from the CDC several times now and I can't get any of these smart people to respond or comment at all????

I can't figure out why.

 

[Winco]

I can't figure out why, because I have no idea what you are trying to say.

Well first of all I said "country" not "economy".

Second, is your box-boy job at Winco still going ?

 

[KissMy]

It took pneumonia & flu a year to kill as many as covid did in it's first month. Covid is also permanently damaging internal organs of 14% of infected.

 

[Winco]

Well, little Winnie IS a bit dim. I believe his raging TDS has reduced his pea-sized brain to a quivering mass of jelly. Very sad, but VERY preventable.

Well there you go.
Proving my point.
You say Dim, followed by TDS, then Pea Sized Brain, and finally Jelly.

Well done Tard. How about answering my previous question?
You up to it lil' man?

Let's discuss. You up?

It's valid to compare... But it's informative how LITTLE CDC knows about the actual numbers.. You put the WORST CASE numbers in the title thread, but at the CDC site they are given as ranges... And MOST of the estimates range over a factor of TWO !!! So if they can't get closer on numbers for a NORMAL flu season -- how good you think the numbers actually are for COVID?????

 

[flacaltenn]

It too the pneumonia & flu a year to kill as many as covid did in it's first month. Covid is also permanently damaging internal organs of 14% of infected.

Graph is a death RATE genius... NOT a death comparison... For COVID, NOBODY knows the actual death rate... CDC is "guessing" at #infected because there haven't been Antibody studies yet... Right now the Covid death RATE IS almost 10 times that of other flus.. That's using a GUESS that #infected is just TWICE #reported.. But others say its more like a factor 8 to 20..

AND - the #reported CVid cases HAS NOT EVEN BROKEN 1MILLION yet... Compare that to a normal flu season with and ESTIMATED 45 MILLION reported...

Give it a week.,.. It's going to 30% unemployed before the end of April... Go do yourself a favor and find out the LAST TIME this country had more than 12 or 15% unemployed... It's not funny man.. You're laughing at misery and hurting..

Makes one wonder why you don't hold the blob responsible for the inaccurate numbers the CDC is posting. The CDC is part of the Executive Branch, no?

trump is passing OFF BLAME to others.
If trump allows 'back to work' orders on May 1st, then ALL unemployment numbers are on HIM.
trump fuucked up the entire situation, but you may cast blame on Biden, Hillary, (D) , the House. etc.

That is ALL the contards have. Blame and Deflection.

Pro-Life? Don't make me laugh.

 

[edthecynic]

Give it a week.,.. It's going to 30% unemployed before the end of April...

It is already 17.9% by the FAKE BLS numbers counting the 22+ million laid off the last 4 weeks, and 75.6% by Tramp's REAL UE calculation for Obama's UE, up from Obama's 42% claimed by Tramp.

Maybe you should consider how many months the 2017-2018 flu season included. As far as I know, a normal flu season stretches from September or October until April or May, 9 months. How long have we had COVID-19 infecting folks? Those numbers for the flu you are using mean less than nothing as a comparison. We need a comparison six months from now when time frames will be comparable. Otherwise, your comparison is a practice in extreme stupidity.

It took pneumonia & flu a year to kill as many as covid did in it's first month. Covid is also permanently damaging internal organs of 14% of infected.

Pneumonia is a complication resulting from flu and Wuhan. The Wuhan numbers are for a period of over two months and they are among the most intense months for flu, also. The death number from Wuhan is still just over half of 2018 flu — so far.
The greater point still stands; the risk doesn’t seem to justify the reaction.

Pneumonia is caused by a bacterial infection which can be caused by flu but also caused by many other things, including a bad cold. So, you really don't know what you are talking about.

No biggie.
Just curious, you ever had pneumonia?
