Corona Virus #5

Now put it in terms of what percantage itç—´ growing.

Then you fall back into speculation land. We've been swimming in that pool for at least a couple weeks here on TBN. The water is getting very rancid.

Maybe be a bit more realistic to look at data from nations that have obviously went past the peak.

Partially correct. With regular flu we have the symptoms when we are infectious. This seems to be different. It can be transmitted even if someone does not show any effects.

The next four weeks will fill in a lot of the blanks we have.

I wish we could trust the numbers out of China...they were at the forefront of this and have the most knowledge. But they have little incentive to help us and it is difficult to trust them.

Oh I totally agree in regards to infectious part. But it doesn't stop people who are obviously sick with Influenza from going about their daily business of human contact. So maybe Influenza is a hazard as well?

I agree, things will change dramatically in the next four weeks. I also still believe in a year we won't remember any of this data.

I also agree about China numbers. Hoping other nations start reporting their stats dropping for more reliable data.

Even after a global down cycle accurate numbers could be years away...most will be nothing but speculation and guesstimates...There may never be any entirely factual numbers...same as other pandemics etc...

Would you say the current death numbers could be within 10,000? 20,000? If so,,,, wouldn't that still be a tiny, tiny, tiny percentage of the World's population?

OK, better get ready - "Trump not currently considering a National lockdown"

It is way, way, way too early to even try to compile numbers or percentages...factors will change daily for the duration...currently, other than for tracking numbers are moot...

I agree. As well as charts and graphs predicting the future numbers.

Agree, 100%. I "hope", I "wish" I guess I have to "assume" the China figures are correct. But as an avowed enemy of this nation it is a little difficult to have a lot of confidence in their figures.

I am not sure why some of you are questioning the numbers on this......

Lefties have been GUESSING at global warming numbers for 20+ years, and still get away with it

No there is a difference between getting accurate tracking numbers of virus cases...and just making up or altering numbers so they fit a theory...

Exactly.
