I'm trying to provide the percentage of hospitalizations and deaths in the total number of tests.

Understanding ALL of the data is important. When someone only gives you specific results and says it is representative of ALL data, then you are being manipulated into believing a narrative.

So it's part of a narrative that people who don't have COVID19 don't have a chance of dying or being hospitalized from COVID19?

It's that there are a number of tests and only a small percentage tested positive, an even smaller percentage were hospitalized, and a minute percentage died.

I don't believe in conspiracies. I believe people will say what they want you to hear or want you to believe. If the virus is getting worse, it's strange that the numbers don't show it.

DAVE_M · Jul 15, 2020

The CDC says 9% of all tests reported were positive. What percentage were hospitalized and what percentage died?

Your response to a statistical analysis should never be what are trying to prove. It should be what does the stats tell us. You do you but I believe you may have a blind spot on this subject.

*Well right now they’re showing us in LaSalle Parish to have over 120 new cases, and that’s simply not true. We have, on our list, people listed two, three, four, five times, because they’ve tested positive and need a negative test to go back to work, so they keep going back and getting retested. It’s showing up positive again, and those numbers are added as new cases when they’re simply not. Nobody can show me anything that says that a mask is doing any good anyway. He issued a mandate, no disrespect to the governor, but he needs to get his people on his COVID team to start looking at real numbers.*

Sheriff Scott Franklin

This is an interesting factor to consider when questioning where numbers are coming from. In a small community where it's easier to review their own data, this was easy enough for someone to note and consider, but if you take this type of error in the reporting and extrapolate it across the country, the margin for error becomes huge. Their total number of cases (persons) is actually 72.

It seems these so-call statistions probably lost their jobs back around November 2016 and were hired to collect healthcare statistics. Sure wish I could completely wreck my job and stay gainfully employed.

What I’ve been saying, the whole *put politics aside* doesn’t fly when you talking about constitutional infringements on rights... you put it aside during discussions, not communist dictator mandated orders... I hope he gets smoked on this one

That what I was getting at they got fired after the election because they clearly missed the boat but it looks like the health department or whoever is handling stats for Covid.

Well, it looks like goats and camels can also be carriers, so...

Yes, there are less patients at the hospitals. Realistically, we're all going to be carriers of the virus. No one is going to be free of the virus. The good news is that most of us won't show any symptoms. I wouldn't worry about it. There are worse bacteria and viruses out there that no one talks about.

this!

Well I have heard some of them were * goat f*****s* lol and it can be transferred from intercourse...

I would love to find that quote from the sheriff in a newspaper or someplace that I could share with a lot of people. If that’s happening Louisiana it’s probably happening here in Texas, too.
Can you direct me to where I can find the sheriff quoted? Thanks
