Yeah I agree, or maybe even lower if a larger number than currently estimated have been infected and we don’t know it yet. (You did read the last line that indicates a bit of wink wink right?)
I did read it but did not get the reference. I heard an epidemiologist from Yale opine that the percentage will be around .6 but he said some of his colleagues thought around 1 percent. And it just looks like a whole lot of young people are asymptomatic. So unless you are breaking it down by more vulnerable demographics i doubt it will be 3 ish…unless it mutates in a way that is more killer diller. But i also heard the epidemiologist say that most mutations make viruses less harmful to humans.
Good research there… covid-19 has been shown to have a low incidence of mutation getting through from one generation to the next. This is super-geeky, but you can take a look at nextstrain.org/ncov if you want to see some results of that kind of research. They use it to trace back the ancestory of different “clades” that have infected people.
Ha, yeah, the anthropic view. I wonder if there’s a course on how to avoid that pitfall. Even scientists fall for it constantly imo because it’s so deeply ingrained in humans to think that way. I hope that whoever first programs AI doesn’t endow them with a primarily self-centered pov.
Another thing I’ve learned this whole time: People who think masks are tranny are perfectly glad to call the Justice Department and the Governent Alphabet Soup boys on your business if you politely ask them to wear a mask. Cognitive dissonance, anyone?
I think it is a lot lower.

then one would say the better term is THRIVING!

Sorry, that’s _tyranny_ not _tranny_. No slur was meant or implied.
Rarely hurts to clarify.
