10 more people dying is a lot different if 500,000 more people have it.

COVID cases keep increasing - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/29 15:02:20
     deaths are not falling. - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 15:33:39
          Why are they more important than rates? (nm) - Sal MU - 7/29 15:40:11
               Because death rate is a complete and utter guess, for one. - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 15:44:07
                    the rate tells you how deadly it is - Sal MU - 7/29 15:47:02
                         Ok, so if you don't trust any data that's coming out, who - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 15:51:09
                              It might not change what I do, but it's the actual - Sal MU - 7/29 16:06:40
                              Do you change you life much out of fear of getting a cold? - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/29 15:54:53
                                   That's a known virus that's been around for YEARS. - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 15:57:59
                                        And you know the death rate is low so you don't care - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/29 16:11:11
                              Yes. how deadly it is is very important. The most important - TigerMatt STL - 7/29 15:53:46
                    So if we find a virus where only 100 people have died you - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/29 15:46:36
                         That's an apples and oranges comparison. - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 15:54:17
                              So do you live each winter in fear of catching a cold? - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/29 15:55:44
                                   Ask it again and maybe it'll make more sense. - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 15:59:32
          Rates are the only important thing - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/29 15:35:34
               If 200,000 die, who really cares what the rate is? - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 15:40:01
                    Because the rate is an indication of how much of the society - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/29 15:45:23
                         It's a guess. It doesn't tell you anything right now. - kmawv8 MU - 7/29 15:47:58
                              See my question to you above - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 7/29 15:49:39
     The state of TN admitted 300 cases were recently added - Eggs MU - 7/29 15:05:09
