29,000,000 people in Texas, last I checked 12681 had died of the China Virus. We know know that number is phony.  That would give you .044 of 1 percent. I was off on the zeros but but still less than a half of 1 percent an we close down a 22 trillion dollar economy. Come on man! The virus game should have been over a long time ago.

Then his use of death mortality rate is wrong then.....but then again, facts don't seem to be real important in this board.

Fact is.... this Country’s business owners got SCREWED!! Say what you will but that’s a fact! This virus has been nothing but a political tool to manipulate people. If you can’t see that I can’t help you.  Just stay in your house with your mask on forever.

But he said mortality rate which has nothing to do with total population.

Correct. Mortality rate has to do with what particular cause of the death, not what the population is.

You cannot have a mortality rate to total population. If so, it would be the percentage of total deaths (all diseases, accidents, murder, etc).

I appreciate y’all’s intelligence, but I don’t believe I ever referenced the mortality rate in my reply. I was speaking to the severity of the China Virus.  My point is that the mortality rate is not near as important as the effects of the virus on the population as a whole. For instance, if 5 people got a raging case of syphillis and 1 of them died from it then it’s true,  the mortality rate would be 20%. But if there is a population of 1000 then the death rate for that population is .1%. The complete effects on the entire population have to be considered when trying to convey the threat of the China Virus. We all have to live with the lockdowns, the screwed up economy, the host of other ill effects, so we ALL have to be considered when talking about the issue of mortality and sickness.

Realville, nothing scientifically says the virus should be over now.  But many less deaths and infections would have occurred if Trump had acted appropriately.  It is not manipulation.  Listen to the tapes.

Can you tell me what you would have done to stop the spread of an airborne virus?

Just asking for facts. Problem with both sides of political environment is scare tactics that is fed through conspiracies.

I never said the virus should be over. Read the title. I said and believe that the economy should never have been shut down. Nothing scientifically says the we should have shut the economy down. Trump shut down travel from China after 21 advisors told him not too. Well guess every other leader in 184 countries acted inappropriately dealing with virus. Was he suppose to just barge into China and create World War III? Go sell propaganda nonsense to someone else. Are there conspiracy tapes out there. Didn’t know anyone used tapes anymore. 😂

Nothing conspiracy about the death rate of .044 of one percent an that’s using the pumped up numbers.

Death rate is deaths divided by cases and that is not .044 of one percent. So maybe not conspiracy but it sure is not facts

Death rate as it affects the population of Texas is .044 of one percent. He’ll if we’re gonna shut down everyone’s freakin life in Texas you gotta go by population not cases. You can’t have it both ways scooter. You can use that analogy with the flu when they don’t shut down the economy but not this nonsense.

Flu mortality rate is .1%. Covid mortality rate is 1.5%. That makes Covid near 15 times more deadly than flu. I think that warrants extra precaution. Should we have went about it differently? IDK

The problem with your analogy is the accuracy of the Covid numbers. The cdc came out last week an said only 6 percent of the deaths were related to Covid only. 6 PERCENT!! An before you go there. People who had underlying conditions like diabetes, heart disease, etc could have also died from the flu with those health conditions. Sorry not buying it.

.1% of people with flu die while 1.5% of people with Covid die. Both include people with underlying conditions.

Nice side step but it doesn’t work that way.

it would not have mattered who was president nor how that president chose to handle this. There was going to be deaths. It’s an airborne virus.

People can choose there own safety

on the other hand democratic policies have killed millions of innocent babies.

cant preach preserving life when you elect those that kill innocent babies

if you can’t see that you are lost

The flu couldn’t be politicized, it’s been around too long not to mention it already has a pretty much useless yearly vaccine. Funny how the New  China Virus was released on the U.S. conveniently in a election a year. Show me how you came up with your fake 1.5 percent and the source you got your numbers from  because your WRONG! I guess the Montgomery County Judge is wrong in the video I posted saying he couldn’t understand how why we closed down the economy on a 1 percent virus. 1 percent being if you round up the percentage.
