If you are saying the mortality rate is more .3% than 3%, then the only way to make that conclusion, would be to say the actual number of people who have contracted the virus is 10x what is recorded. You said that, not me. If it’s half of that, then we’ll say 1.5%. Then just up the contracted number to 5x the recorded number. If you’re saying the number of recorded people with the virus is absolutely exaggerated and is equal to or lower than what they say, then the death rate goes up from 3%. So what point are you making? It can’t be both.
Again, it's not what I'm saying, but what the experts are saying. I'm only repeating. The CDC estimated that, based on serology tests, the actual infection rate is between 6 and 24 times as high as the confirmed rate (and it seems that 10 times is more or less the baseline guess in general from experts) and this is not based on my opinion, but on the evaluation of experts at the CDC and elsewhere based on serology testing.
To summarize, right now, we have a CFR of roughly 3% (though it is dropping as testing increases- it was close to 7% in April, when generally only the most serious cases were even detected, largely due to a shortage of tests at the time). If there are five times are many actual cases as confirmed cases, the actual death rate is .6%; if 10 times as many, the death rate is .3%, and if 20 times as many, .15%. And of course this means that there are many more cases than are known, which is why we can't just easily knock this thing out by quarantining anyone who is positive, since there are multiple unknown positive people (many of whom are asymptomatic) for every one positive person.
