    This argument will fly past the village idiots - we all know who they are - but it will be helpful for those who understands basic math.

    Israel has 840k CONFIRMED covid cases and 6,300 deaths. That means that their covid death rates is 0.75%. Even if we assume that they indeed counted every case and every death (they didn't), their OFFICIAL death rare can be used to calculate how many ACTUAL cases there are withing everyone's particular community.
    Yes, it IS a gross oversimplification but it gives at least a perspective on how bad each community has it (or had it).

    All you have to do it multiply your covid deaths by 135 and it will give you a pretty decent estimate of how many covid cases there were in your community. This is a conservative estimate - meaning there probably were more.

    • Numbers mean shit after 1 year of this. Russia "reported" 100k deaths while the actual number was well over 300k in 2020 alone...not to mention Chinagrafician
    • Brazil stopped reporting? latest were 3-4k deaths A DAY! Stop with these posts to downplay the seriousness of this epidemicgrafician
    • just get vaccinated and move the fuck on to other stuff, please, damn!grafician
    • grafi, lets hope the scientists designing he vaccines didn't have the same "numbers mean shit" mentality.pr2
    • btw, u got some way to cherry pick your data... using Russia and China.pr2
    • LOL so multiply case rate by a factor of over 100x to get real cases? No.monospaced
    • *case rate = death ratemonospaced
    • mono, i get it. my 5 year old has hard time multiplying numbers of more than 2 digits too.pr2
    • Or you know, just consider 10x number of cases for a real count number, based on historic data.
      Also above I used the numbers from the website YOU linked!      grafician
    • ALSO if you REALLY like numbers, you'll see how they differ wildly based on country population, continent, culture, etc.
      Israel, Sweden, NZ, are edge cases      grafician
    • ALSO "scientists designing he vaccines" thought nothing of numbers, 10 or 10M makes no difference if you're contracted to make a vaccine!grafician
    • ALSO there are no "village idiots" - some of us here know a bit more or a bit less about various topics, so make your argument or don't, doesn't matter anywaygrafician
    • I read a lot and posted almost daily in this thread, check it! But that doesn't make me a fucking scientist, so just present new info and leave it at that? tnxgrafician
    • "historic data" - what world do you live in? what historic data? every half-decent country has decent enough reporting system that reflects reality.pr2
    • No. Most if not all countries report # of cases based on tests, not on real spread, which is like I said at least 10x, this was speculated by various sourcesgrafician
    • We will never know real number of infections - ever - as this contagion can also have no symptoms in many, agreed?grafician
    • So why would you go and try to make wild assumptions based on inconclusive numbers?! Stop wasting your time, do something useful.grafician
    • which numbers are inconclusive? is 0.75% from Israel "inconclusive"? and if it's so low there, why is California at 1.6%?pr2
    • is California's healthcare somehow that much less efficient OR because Israel is better at testing thus closer to real numbers?pr2
    • If you can’t figure out why California and Israel are different then you are truly lost. Omfg you have the most narrow view imaginable, and it’s wrong.monospaced
    • bro, by now, according to the fear-mongers, whole world should have it and 40 million should be dead.pr2
    • why aren't you questioning their awful data, and in the process also questing you original assumptions about the virus?pr2
    • what awful data?monospaced
    • the reason we don't have 40 million dead is because enough people are clueless, moronic science denying fucktards like you, who refuse to do the right thing.monospaced
    • If the whole world was like you, then we would be in a much worse place. I wholeheartedly hope you eat your words in the worst possible scenario imaginable.monospaced
