Real scientists are about numbers. I have an MS in Applied Mathematics and I worked for a health research contracting company for 33 years in health survey database support.
I am tracking the COVID-19 numbers around the world. It appears the numbers on recoveries are being understated. For instance, world-wide there are 930,819 reported cases with 46,782 deaths, but only 193,761 recoveries. Of the recoveries, 76,238 are from China!. They are showing a 93.5% recovery rate! You say you don't believe their numbers. I am saying I don't believe that of the U.S.'s 211,408 cases only 8,805 have recovered. That is only a 4.2% recovery rate while the death rate is 2.2%. Can somebody tell us what is going on with the other 93.6% of the cases? For the recovered cases, how long did it take? For the cases that died, how quickly did it happen? What is the breakdown of deaths by age? What is the breakdown of deaths by gender? What is the breakdown of deaths by race?
If you go to the CDC website you have to poke through a maze of Madison Avenue style hocus pocus to find any statistics. When you do, they are not current and they do not provide answers to the questions above.
Information is power. The powerful want to keep their power so they control the Information. There is nothing much worse than Ignorance. It leads to Fear. It leads to bad decisions. It leads you to put your trust in those who "say" they Know.
