Am I doing this math wrong?

The USA has 7406 deaths
12,283 recovered

of all resolved cases thats a 37.6% death rate. obviously the real rate is much lower as testing is a joke in this country and only obvious people who seek urgent medical care are really being tested, but that still seems really, really bad that 37% of the people needing treatment are dying BEFORE our system collapses in all states.

edit: If that rate holds for all positive tests the USA is looking at 85k deaths _just from the known tested positive cases already_

recovery to death rate != mortality rate. recoveries lag compared to deaths.

The best part of all this mask confusion is that the poo poo is all designed to be single use disposable and we have to use them for a week because trimp is such a staggering oval office and capitalism has utterly failed. I bet the predominant route of infection for health care workers us going to be from repeatedly handling contaminated ppe over and over. Not that there would be any way to prove it, but when you're keeping your roni rag in a bag for a week how can you possibly avoid contamination?

A billion masks could have been stockpiled at the cost of fifteen minutes of 2019 U.S. GDP.

Going to be weird having all these people die and no funerals for them. I wonder if it'll change how people grieve permanently. Can't fly down to bury your grandma or scatter her ashes, can't get to the hospital to be there with grandpa, just a bunch of vanished relatives. Maybe in 18 months people'll be able to get together and have a memorial or wake, but then again it's entirely possible nobody'll be able to afford to travel.

We're all going to come out of this traumatized, and I suspect we will not be able to acknowledge or cope with that trauma as a society, which means we'll all be dealing with it on an individual basis instead which will not work.

this, recoveries take 2-3 weeks while deaths usually occur within 1 week

in fact, mortality rate in the US looks to be lower than other places since our population is relatively young compared to say Italy or Spain

Fairly certain Rand Paul is asymptomatic which caused a bunch of Congress critters to freak since he was infectious for like a week before getting tested.
