Fact 1: The overwhelming majority of people do not have any significant risk of dying from COVID-19.
In New York City, an epicenter of the pandemic with more than one-third of all U.S. deaths, the rate of death for people 18 to 45 years old is 0.01 percent, or 11 per 100,000 in the population.
Even for people ages 65 to 74, only 1.7 percent were hospitalized.
We know from decades of medical science that infection itself allows people to generate an immune response - antibodies - so that the infection is controlled throughout the population by "Herd immunity." Indeed, that is the main purpose of widespread immunization in other viral diseases - to assist with population immunity.
Fact 4: People are dying because other medical care is not getting done due to hypothetical projections.
Critical health care for millions of Americans is being ignored and people are dying to accommodate "Potential" COVID-19 patients and for fear of spreading the disease.
ADVERTISEMENT. The overwhelming evidence all over the world consistently shows that a clearly defined group - older people and others with underlying conditions - is more likely to have a serious illness requiring hospitalization, and more likely to die from COVID-19.
