How was your ‘spring has arrived and is here to stay’ run this morning...tight shorts and t shirt? You’re pimping AHATT very early this year while condemning anyone who isn’t. It’s ok, it will come just take it one day at a time bud.
Again, calculating mortality rate can be misleading because confirmed cases vs deaths is not always accurate. Confirmed deaths vs confirmed recoveries is a better indicator, to an extent. So Iran has zero confirmed cases of full recovery...hence the high percentage.
You as well. Stay educated friend. Never stop learning.

Actually, mortality rate is currently in the 3% range overall but it varies by country and fluctuates. For example, as of 2/26, South Korea 55% , Iran at infinity (19 deaths out of 19 cases), France 18%, Japan 9%.
Worse or not worse is not the point. This is the problem when folks make blanket comparisons and when it’s not ‘worse’ then we should just disregard it as another hype driven pandemic scare. This is real, it’s here, you will most likely not die from it (the mortality rate is low, around 2% at the moment)..but anyone in business or has money in the market will be affected. Whether or not you want to ignore it is dependent on one’s life/career, that’s fine. But someone who always chalks up such events as NBD again and again is simply disconnected.
I work with Chinese suppliers and ground truth is...they say it’s bad. First hand knowledge, not fake media. There has been improvement but it’s still a uneasy situation so this idea that it’s another hype driven story is nonsense. Only those who are comfortably sitting in their rocking chair think otherwise.
Why do you always do this? I’m in global supply chain so I see the impacts firsthand, on the world stage...not just the elderly or vulnerable. It’s not media hype or scare tactics. Look at Italy now admitting they were not prepared because they thought it was NBD/hype...now they are behind. It’s always good to stay ahead and be proactive over a reactive NBD thought process. The media isn’t always out to get you.
I only periodically check but rarely get involved. There really isn’t a benefit unless you are promoting yourself, your company, or your profession. Otherwise it simply a platform for folks to spew their opinions without much of an educational value.
Ah. Yea I get your point. I don’t pay any attention to the CC agendas as those discussions never amount to anything. Opinions don’t change. I only originally posted the link as a fwiw and found the AN forecasts interesting. I also don’t look it that often enough to make a claim that the CPC is always warm or not. I know the CFS monthlies usually are.
