Conclusion: never in the history of man has so much expert opinion been put forward by so many with no knowledge at all of what they are talking about.
Leave it to the real experts guys...you are only upsetting yourselves.
I'll just return to my ignorance and listen as and when the doctors tell us something REAL.
Those wanting to discuss this are just interested in the subject. There's really nothing else to it.

They are the worldometer figures, but they are repeated on several other media sites.dsr wrote: ↑Mon Feb 24, 2020 11:56 pmThe stats you are using are, I presume, the figures on the worldometer or something like them here,
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries
which currently show 77,345 cases in total in China, cumulative, since the outbreak began; 2,593 deaths, 25,066 recoveries, the rest still being treated. The population of Wuhan is over 10 million, which means that even if every single case in China was in Wuhan, still less than 1% of the population has caught it. Wouldn't that mean it doesn't spread all that easily?
On the other hand, if the rumours are correct and the actual rate of infection is say ten times the official figures, then the death rate suddenly drops by a factor of ten to less than 1%. Which is also good news.
China has locked down each City, people I believe are virtually locked into there own flats, that’s how they are stopping the spread and it’s starting to work, cases are dropping as are the death rates now. Which is great news.
I am very sceptical about the rumours of all these additional cases. Take Iran for example, Qom a religious site has had pilgrimages over the last few weeks and those people have have created cases in several cities in Iran plus 3 other countries.
The real anomaly in terms of data Is Singapore, they have I believe not taken major steps to stop the spread but it’s not spreading. This is really confusing that it’s not doing what’s it’s done elsewhere.

2 local schools closed & 6th form girls from our high school who went on ski trip to Italy sent home and directed to “self-isolate” for 10 days. A bit close to home for me as it includes my lads girlfriend and our next door neighbour.

Lowbankclaret, you have to admit that you have been misleading people with incorrect conclusions from some of the right data.

I still believe that this will simmer for a while and then disappear and my concerns are related to why this is such a big story. You’ve referred to SARS previously, and how the death rate was 9.6% which was worrying, and you still haven’t answered my question about how many people in the UK actually had SARS and how many died... would you care to answer?
Re: Coronavirus
How is the government going to monitor if people are in fact self-isolating for 10 days ?
Will those people be able to claim sick pay.
What happens if due to being in wrong place wrong time a few weeks later and they have to self-isolate again ?
The country could well come to a standstill.

It is dangerous to write as fact that the death rate is over 20% because you select the wrong data set. Yes dangerous because some people will read it and begin to panic. I don’t think you’re an idiot for having an opinion about China and the officialdom there, in fact I would agree there may be some merit in the argument but it is still an opinion.

Re: Coronavirus
Clearly, China has a different type of government than we do but it's not a closed country. We all know how many Chinese holiday in Europe and further afield, how many of their kids are in UK universities. The thought that they are massaging away hundreds of thousands of cases and thousands of deaths is, although not inconceivable, less likely than it used to be.

Re: Coronavirus
Let’s start with the WHO calculation prediction.
They use the number of confirmed deaths divided by the confirmed cases.
Simply that’s 2711 divided by 80420 and times by 100.
Currently using the WHO calculation method that’s 3.37 % death rate.
Which part of this calculation do you with 1st degree do you dispute?

Anybody with a modicum of common sense would realise the Chinese figures can’t be trusted, I wouldn’t go as far as incinerating bodies but if they was I wouldn’t be exactly bowled over. I think within a fortnight myself depends how much effort goes towards covering it up & painting a rosey picture, I think the Chinese are really concerned & working hard towards a solution but the extent of the death figures we’ll never really know, it’s difficult to find the truth out when people try to keep secrets.paulatky wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 7:17 pmWhy is it dangerous ?

Start with degree of accuracy. How accurate are the figures? Barring lies, the death number is likely to be accurate. But the number of cases? Can you be sure that no-one has been missed; that no-one has coughed, decided it was flu, and recovered; and specifically, that the asymptomatic cases (reckoned by some to be as much as 50% of cases) have all been diagnosed?Lowbankclaret wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 7:47 pmLet’s start with the WHO calculation prediction.

I'm not making any prediction, just passing on expert opinions. They, being experts, are not confusing CFR and IFR but doing their job and passing information. You're just trying to pass on your own fears.

I’ve noticed that Lowbankclaret has changed his calculation used from earlier in the thread, he previously used only the confirmed closed cases for his calculation, which is what I kept pulling him up on. I suppose if he’s no longer using that calculation that’s progress

"current IFR estimates range from 0.3% to 1%."
Maybe you'd best stick with the 3%. It seems like it's the best number going for anybody looking to justify panicking.
Personally, I reckon the Chinese have burnt all the statistics.

Re: Coronavirus
Is what you previously posted on this thread...Lowbankclaret wrote: ↑Fri Feb 07, 2020 5:09 pmI think you are perhaps not in possession of all the facts.
You also need to look through the propaganda of the gov, trying to stop a panic.
Currently if you look at the percentages of people who have either died or recovered.
26% have died, 74% have recovered. Not exactly flu like numbers, Now the died percentage should drop over time.
However 15% of people currently infected are in a critical condition.
The Chinese have admitted anyone who dies who haven’t been tested will not be tested and hence will never appear in the figures.
What you also need to remember is the lag in the figures of the 14 days it takes to show symptoms.
The R zero number is currently 3-4 which means the spread will still be exponential.
Anyone who thinks this is not serious is not grasping the situation.
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/
All I have done on this thread is to highlight why your closed case calculations were misleading, now you’re attempting to changed your mind with a slight of hand and you’re now using another (more accurate, but still not the right way to define predicted death rate) calculation. It has been stated many times why you were initially wrong. So I’ll ask again, were you right or wrong when you quoted a 26% death rate?Lowbankclaret wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 9:07 pmThat’s not using closed cases, it’s using the WHO calculation,
