Wait....so you claim to know the denominator?
We know the deaths (well at least we think we do. I’ll even give you the deaths that were not caused by Covid but were counted since they had Covid when they died).

At this point no one knows the denominator. We don’t know who has had it and didn’t have symptoms so we don’t know the real death rate. We do know it has gone from 5% to 1% on 4 months but that is just with the confirmed case counts. Fear porning about this won’t change the facts. In the long run, this will be similar to the common flu. Sure, it’s really hard on people over 65 and those with underlying conditions, but let’s stop trying to pick and choose statistics.

It reminds me of that famous quote “Lies, D***ed Lies and Statistics”. People can find what they want in statistics but fear porning about something that every Western European country has already figured it is just silly.
