Coronavirus fears hammer markets - how far will it go?

That is Huntington Beach. LOL

I realize that. Lol

They are neighboring beaches with similar demographics, and both defying the governor's "orders", was more my point.

Understood. As a former SoCal (Orange County) native, I know both cities and beaches quite well and was just making fun.

The real death rate in MA anyway by age. Looking at it this way, it seems silly to lock down the vast majority of the population when we could have sheltered the small percentage of the actual vulnerable people with pre existing conditions.

Now factor in that the total death rate, which is being reported at ~ 3.4% right now, will go down drastically once antibody testing is underway because they will discover that a lot more people had it that didn’t report it or even know they had it. Early studies are starting to surface from places like Stanford University that are hinting that this may be the case. Most people won’t fully know the complete truth until quite some time passes and likely a lot of people will just forget and move on by then until the next new virus comes along and everyone panic reacts without science again.

Coronavirus Has Now Killed More Americans Than Vietnam War

I think you meant to write 3.9% or .039

California:

Reported cases: 45218

Total deaths: 1793

That makes the death rate of reported cases to be 3.965%..

For it to be 0.03% the total cases would have to be about 5.9 million reported infected in California.
And for 0.0001 then about 179 million would have to have been infected with or without symptoms in California. So yeah...

Increase your self awareness. Lets's take Denmark. They just completed a study by testing 10,000 people. They found the actual fatality rate went down to .08%. If you factor in the probable contraction rate for Los Angeles the actual fatality rate would be .1% today. Scotland's researches estimate the actual fatality rate would be .04%. In New York City the actual/real death rate decreased from 7.4% to .5% factoring in the real contraction rate vs fatalities. The actual/real rates keep going down every day. At no place that has conducted widespread testing have researchers found a death rate over 1%...I don't understand why almost exclusively it's liberals that keep telling us how terrible the fatality rates are and how we should keep the worldwide population on lockdown for the foreseeable future. It's not a conservative vs liberal thing. Politics should not be playing a part in this. Are liberals in lockstep with the socialist who want gov't to be able to control citizens freedoms and rights?? I don't know what else it could be. It's certainly not the real death rates.

Man, you don't even have the most basic understanding of what's going on here...

First, you need to accept that the depth rate is being significantly padded.

Second, multiple studies have shown that, in California (most likely worldwide), the infected rate is exponentially higher than being reported.

Do you understand that?

Exactly

No politics being played here. I got those numbers from the CDC. I was only correcting you on your math going by their figures. You're getting all LDS by yourself.

Percentages

I'd think that 1% number is closer to the actual value than 4%, but probably somewhere in between.

Nope. Just pointing the hysteria is mostly from the liberals.
