That is a very high bar to prove and therefore a very low bar to implement these harsh measures. The measures themselves are inhuman too. I think we both weight our rights, the medical risk and economic danger differently but I can see your

That way we agree. However if you have cancer or break your neck and have a positive test, you should not be counted as "died from covid" - yet you are.

I should have elaborated, sorry. I'm actually trying to make the exact same point you are. People die, and there are sometimes various causes. In your case it was cardiac arrest that "masked" cancer or at least is only half o

Why would you assume that? There was a comorbidity study from Italy that did not hint at that at all.

No, this is the "with" number. The "from" number is unknown and is impossible to be larger.

We know Italy counts "everyone". There was even a study done on comorbidities.

We simply don't have random testing in Germany yet. 0.1% is roughly the official number of positive test (of people who are sick enough to get tested).

Fair enough. From what I make of this all we do not have strong enough data to really say this is as bad as we make it. We'll see in a month or two I guess when we can conclusively look at the total mortality.

The age distribution is quite a signal that this is plausible. Then we have the Italian study that said only 1% had no other comorbidity. And then you have a few cases with enough details to go looking, usually the first death in a city

How is that possible if every death is counted as corona death? Besides a missing test of course.

The media should stop calling this death rate or corona deaths. These deaths are not (all) from the virus, rather occurred in people who died and had a positive test. These things can be (and I assume are) vastly different. Just as a thou

Depending on what exactly that 95% number is, that could be incredibly bad. There is some eye-opening math about testing inaccuracies combined with low case numbers.

Well we would need 2000 days of those 2k days to even reach 50% infection of the total population. That is simply not possible to sustain with these extreme measures.

Somethng else I wonder about all this: Let's look at Germany and say we have about 10000 new cases per day with the current measures, including unknown infections and some handwaving. That's a lot of days until you reach a signifi

That seems strange. Most results are ready in 24h in Germany I think.
