Yeah I know, and I did some numbers on that particular town. At least for that, the numbers are actually massively higher now, as implied by the video. But even if you look at Lombardy, they are just somewhat higher. And the farther away yo

But this leads to double (and n-) counting. And that way we don't measure the death rate, but rather the spread of infection in the general population. If that is the case I would expect the death rate nowhere at no point to be much hi

People who use a terminal know how to edit a json file. That approach has good tradition by now with Sublime etc, see the poster above. And I'm pretty sure VS doesn't auto-associate itself with json files. They handled this in the

Of course. But this is only one of many such reports. I've read things about massive increase of cystic fibrosis and damage to testicles in males. Maybe those reports were wonky, I don't know. But the possibility of a real after-e

I read on so many different places on the internet, and I have no idea where this is going. HN is very panicky, 4chan is the same or really in the post-apocalyptic stage. Reddit is extremely conservative / non-panicky (maybe because an
