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

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

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

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

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
