The official COVID-19/Coronavirus Discussion Thread...aka I hope I don't get the Rona

FYI to everyone.
I don't know what level of protection is needed for covid-19.
But a lot of these facemasks aren't meant to be worn over beards.
The most you might be able to do is a goatee.
But the edges of the mask should not be over facial hair.
This is why most people in plants are clean-shaven.

Yall gotta read the article.

Its saying if you estimate the number of people who were sick but never got diagnosed and counted, the number falls to like 0.66%. Issue is how to do you calculate that number?

Then it compared that to the numbers out of China, which were 3%, but it doesnt account for people who were sick and never got counted there.

These are estimates so yall gotta take it for what it is.

All I know is right now we have 184k confirmed cases, and almost 4k deaths. Thats over 2%.

And since we estimating, ima do what the article did and include the number of deaths that were corona related but got misdiagnosed as flu and pneumonia and say the death rate is about 4%.
