When compared to people tested positive, when they only had resources to test the people they were pretty sure were infected.
Their death rate in April was the same as the peak of the second wave in December.
- monocasa 6y agoThey had already instituted a heavy lockdown by April.
- tinus_hn 6y agoNot sure what that has to do with anything, but if April’s not it, when was that double digit death rate?
- monocasa 6y agoEnd of March. Which is what led to the extremely heavy lockdowns in April.
- tinus_hn 6y agoSo, end of March was 900 people dying a day, December was 1000 people dying in a day.
- monocasa 6y agoYes, after a year of treating the illness now each patient takes less hospital resources. They were able to get the death rate from 900/day during a time with 5000 new infections per day, down to about the same daily death rate with 25,000 new infections per day. This is kind of my point.
- tinus_hn 6y agoYou don’t know anything about the amount of infections in March other than that it was more than 5000 per day, because there was a shortage of testing kits, which is my point.
- sokoloff 6y agoThe denominator for that calculation was not “all COVID infections”.
