Data And Numbers

Where are we really with the virus?

Note that (as is often the case with healthcare statistics) different countries are keeping books differently, making it difficult to compare. I continue to believe that the fatality rate will ultimately end up being far below one percent.

[Update early afternoon]

A lot of links from Instapundit. Things are looking better than the models. One I found of interest is that if we can believe Chinese data, four out of five cases are asymptomatic.

The News Media

No other institution has failed the public worse. Which is pretty sad, considering the competition.

[Update mid afternoon]

The media lied, people died. And this was driven purely by Trump derangement. If he said something might be useful, it couldn’t possibly be.

[Update a few minutes later]

Great. It may be that the virus can spread through normal breathing. I don’t know; seems like it would be spreading much faster if that was the case. But we continue to suffer from a lack of data.
