Covid *HAD* infected only about 1% of the global population. The *recovery* rate is about 70%!

This is the site I use for the info: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ and the info here is global. Numbers are rounded. You can go to this site, to see the current global stats, and down to the national level. Some state/regional data may also be available. Note that different areas have a higher or lower totals.

As you will note, the total number of cases is only 1% of the 7.8 BILLION population. Now of this 1% infection rate, 70% of the infected have recovered! That's right. The current number of people that are infected with covid is 30% of 1%! The death total is so small, it's not even funny. We're talking about under 0.01%!

For this 1%, the economies of the world have been forced close, some forever. Unelected and unaccountable bull-o-crats have shut down business, and issued fines ranging from $100 - $1M (and growing!). And for what, exactly?

How many people know someone who was actually infected with covid? Then, how many that actually died of covid. Let's expand this last one: who died of just covid. There are numerous instances where covid is listed as the 2nd or even 3rd contributor. In some places, people who were killed by gunfire were listed as dying from covid, simply because they had been infected with covid! How does that make sense. If you have cancer, are you going to be listed as someone who died of cancer, or a gunshot? How many other deaths do we even consider the 2nd or 3rd factor to suddenly be the prime cause of death?

Also, why are medical facilities getting multiple 5-digit figures for simply admitting a person with covid, and another 5-digit figure for putting them on ventilators! Ventilators have been shown to have an 88% FATALITY RATE: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/coronavirus-us-new-york-hospital-ventilator-death-rate-latest-a9479411.html

What's more, the vast majority of those with covid deaths are those +70 (+80, and your rate goes from 10 to 20%). A significant number of deaths were people on hospice...people on hospice are people who are already going to die, irregardless of covid!

With FB, Twitter, and more censoring, I've decided to post on Steem.
