From what I can gather, the average suvivability of covid is commonly known as 99.7% of all age groups. Can you break it down for me on how they are calculating 99.7% from the official numbers of the cdc?
Thanks.
Edit: Is this correct, deaths/cases x 100?
From cdc, currently, 37,259,886 cases 623,244 deaths.
But I am getting 1.6%, that's 98.33% (maybe 99.7% was calc from previous numbers if someone knows?).
Sidenote, we all know the actual death is 5.5% of the covid deaths they report.
The most recent data from Norway suggests .05% - .2% mortality IFR... it varies greatly (orders of magnitude) by age and comorbidity though. It actually does have IFR very similar to the flu after this latest variant. It will keep dropping over time and becoming more contagious.
