having covid in you means your mortality rate increased from 0.8 to 3.2 percent, thats why I suggested maybe it caused bad luck and all those 12000 deaths are just very badly timed heart attacks

yeah but if the government classifies everyone who dies of complications from covid as a covid death that's inflating the number

it loving doesnt matter

maybe 0 persons who had covid-19 died of an unrelated heart attack and not the virus, maybe 12000 of the infected died of an unrelated heart attack

but it doesnt matter because the numbers say that if you have it, your chance of ending up dead for ANY REASON spike dramatically

If that percentage holds and you have say 128 million infected, that's 4 million dead. 3x the number of dead in a normal year.

Can't we just take the number of people who died this day last year, subtract it from number of people who died this year, scale for population growth and call it a day? Who really cares what caused of death was. If we have 500 more deaths on average per day in a city and city isn't prepared for that many extra bodies, it doesn't make a difference to coroner if COD was virus or heart attack

Yes this is called excess mortality and is literally how we measure all other pandemics for many reasons but you aren't getting that data as quickly as "confirmed covid" which is specifically tracked and reported and used to react in real-time for epidemiological, resource allocation, and treatment reasons.

also lol I just realized I compared annual deaths with like 2 months of corona, so the numbers are even more hilariously skewed, your chance of somehow dying increases 20-fold if you have tested positive

quote:

The online retailer told customers that the service, Amazon Shipping, will be paused starting in June, according to the Wall Street Journal, which was first to report the change.

Amazon is suspending the service because it needs people and capacity to handle a surge in its own customers’ orders, the Journal reported, citing sources.

quote:

The company is grappling with a demand surge in the United States, where most residents are under stay-at-home orders to stop the spread of the novel coronavirus that is sweeping around the globe.

Amazon has been unable to get many packages to customers in one or two days, as it had promised prior to the epidemic.

The suspension of Amazon Shipping will allow the company to focus on its core delivery operation, said Trevor Outman, founder of consultancy Shipware.
