The way I see it, if you are infected eventually you either recover or you die. If the death rate is 3.9% and the recovery rate is only 5.5% does that mean we are waiting to see if 90.6% of all the infected people in the U.S. are going to recover or die?  At this point I don't see the 5.5% recovery rate as being very meaningful. 

  1. It means we are waiting for an outcome on the remaining 482,033
    active cases
    . And yes, that outcome is recovery or death. You said
    it yourself in your first sentence and contradicted it in the second
    one.
  2. Why is the recovery rate not meaningful? You claimed a 98% recovery
    rate. I simply wanted to show that the actual recovery rate is at the
    opposite end of the spectrum. I can't think of a single reason why it
    wouldn't be meaningful, not just to refute your claim, but for any other
    reason. It's completely accurate. It's based on the current numbers,
    as we've been given them. What's not meaningful? (That, BTW, is a
    rhetorical question.)

with this crisis virus i am not sure the brexit movie will be over the 31 december 

Lol don't worry, Boris won't extend anymore, it's enshrined in law now that come end of December we are completely free deal or no deal. Brexit is done anyway as we left on Jan 31st, up until December 31st this year is just the transition phase to finalize any trade arrangements.

I don't have a cell phone, so they might have trouble tracking me.:biggrin:

You must be almost the only one in the whole world who hasn't then lol 

They track you as soon as you turn your computer on so you needn't feel left out 🤣👍

The 5.5% rate is so far from what the final recovery rate will be that it is meaningless.  Do you really believe that 94.5% of infected people are going to die? I'll wager that at the the end of the pandemic that the recovery rate is very close to 98%.
