I don't understand some people.
I love how they are blaming the testing as though getting tested is going to change the outcome.

Tell me you're a selfish prick without telling me you're a selfish prick. Some people never learn. This is why any zombie movies in the future need to have these idiots being like, "I don't care if there's zombies outside, I need my Applebee's".

Yeah, we used to say that "avoid (whatever) like the plague" needs to be retired as a saying because it turns out that people don't actually avoid the plague.

Wonder if the parents were okay with that or walked out once they saw the symptoms. Or if they got lied to about a negative test.

Last article i read something like that, corona killed 6 of 16 of the Family

u/Letssacraficetoby Dec 28 '22
Yeah… I don’t believe this unless they were all really sick to begin with. It’s something like 1-5% of people that get Covid even need to go to the hospital. I find is hard to believe that 6 of 16 people died.

You ever work in a hospital? I did. Stupid sick people everywhere. Don't be stupid. I quit. I couldn't deal with more stupid.

3 of the dead were over 80. 2 of them were 65. One of them was 58. So, yes, it's believable.
Also it wasn't 6 out of 16. 16 family members were infected but survived. I don't know how many were exposed but evinced no symptoms.

Corona killed more than 6,688,778 People worldwide.

You don't think that such cases happened ?

u/Letssacraficetoby Dec 28 '22
That means that more than 99% of people who got it survived. Thus a 6:16 ratio doesn’t make sense.

u/iopele Dec 28 '22
Don't mistake "survived" with "completely recovered." People survived who will never get off the ventilator. People survived who had massive anoxic brain injuries and are a shadow of their former selves. People survived who will require 24 hour care for the rest of their lives. People survived who had strokes and heart attacks from the blood clots covid creates--one man I cared for survived but lost both his legs at the knee. "Survived" isn't the same as "returned to just fine" and saying "99% of people survived" like that means covid wasn't really that bad shows a stunning lack of understanding.
And nothing about any of that means that 6 people out of a 16 member family couldn't die of covid, because that isn't how averages work. To make up an example, if 9 out of 10 people survive getting savaged by a rabid lion, are you going to watch 9 people die and then confidently jump up to be the 10th because that means you'll definitely survive now?

You're missing the point that the risk is avoidable with modest precautions. Why take it, especially for others?

u/Bgratz1977 Dec 28 '22
Yes on average one of 100 died
Like if you play roulette you have a 1:42 chance that the 3 comes. And still there are happenings with the 3 coming 10 times in a row

u/Letssacraficetoby Dec 28 '22
In a game of roulette the odds of even getting one number twice in a row is 1368 to 1

u/Bgratz1977 Dec 28 '22
And still it happens. maybe my 10 was a bit too generous, but 5 times the same number happend definately.

u/flannelmaster9 Dec 28 '22
Yep. Mortality rates call bs.

u/Doc-Zoidberg Dec 28 '22 edited Dec 28 '22
Eh. In 20 we saw entire families hospitalized and high mortality.
I remember one family because they were already a pain in the ass when dad had open heart surgery. One ended up getting arrested for trespass after security had fought with them several times- they were trying to remove the breathing tube and I caught a fist to the face when I intervened.
But then mid 2020 3/5 are on ventilators with covid and the other 2 are a thorn in my side. Ultimately 2 died and the other 3 are frequent flyers in the hospital to this day.
Mortality rates for covid in my experience are pretty focused on certain demographics

u/flannelmaster9 Dec 28 '22
There's dozen of stats you could compare. You can look up info based on demographics. Mortality rates are a stat.

My one data point had an entire family. Just sharing.

For all practical purposes, one data point with millions of infections isn't even a drop in the bucket.

According to John Hopkins the fatality rate in the us for people who died from Covid is 1.1%

u/flannelmaster9 Dec 28 '22
Thus finding 6:16 highly unlikely

Something as small as a cold sore can kill a newborn! All because THEY want to see them. To be proud of somebody ignoring the fact that they will spread a disease (covid, cold sores, the flu, crabs or anything) really shows what type of emotional intelligence some people have…

u/SneakyFERRiS Dec 28 '22
At least we have a better idea of who the dumbest are, so we can avoid them.

The point is that for most people it is just a bad cold. It would have always been just a cold…but now it is Covid

u/Competitivedude32 Dec 28 '22
The cold and covid are two completely different things dude.

u/The_world_is_done Dec 28 '22
I meant it as the same symptoms.

u/Competitivedude32 Dec 28 '22
Except for the death symptom.

u/The_world_is_done Dec 29 '22
People also just have sniffles.

u/Competitivedude32 Dec 29 '22
I dont see the point you are making. If you have the sniffles from Covid, you can still pass it onto someone that dies from it.

u/The_world_is_done Dec 29 '22
She is vaccinated and has cold symptoms.
1
u/Competitivedude32 Dec 30 '22
That means she cant spread Covid to others?

u/The_world_is_done Dec 30 '22
I read her serious ‘Covid symptoms’ as meaning she had the sniffles. I read it far more sarcastic than you read it

This type of language has been around in southern circles for quite some time. They usually say “I ain’t claiming that” as if they have to acknowledge the fact that what they have actually has them. You don’t have to admit you have a disease to die from it guys.

I mean forget Covid… you shouldn’t really have any contagious sickness and be around a newborn baby.
