The most likely reason is that the US is attributing more deaths to the Chinese virus than they should be that’s bullshit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When did widespred testing start ? And how statistically speaking, does that correlate to positive cases reported? If per-say your test group has a high propensity for the target result would it positively or negatively affect the outcome of the testing?

I don’t care about that Well considering from the chart I posted from the CDC shows that positive tests dropped off a cliff its fair to assume the deaths have declined as well. Generally speaking those numbers are tied together. If you look at past years the decline has been much sharper recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People in the field say that the case death rate is almost useless information and yes lots of people die from the cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
