@freemo @obi I feel that the study means what it says, but I respect your opinion if you disagree or distrust its numbers.

@11112011, you tipped 1e-15 :10grans: to @10grans and have 0.077548768897976991 remaining.

@freemo @obi I thought you have to have had the before you can get the antibodies. Would that count as an "incident"? Perhaps some of these people are naturally immune and were born with antibodies.

@freemo

You said "it was as serious as they said", but when @obi pointed out that the study shows that more infections means a lower death rate (meaning it's actually less serious than they said), you claim that the False Positive Paradox invalidates that conclusion. I would just like to know why.

@freemo @obi It just doesn't makes to me that the conclusion of a study saying that there are more infections than previously thought should not be that there are more infections than previously thought.

There's nothing about a False Positive Paradox that invalidates that conclusion.

@freemo @realcaseyrollins I didn't even know the media was even covering this. I'm gonna go search it, wondering what they said now

@freemo
The people running the study must know about the Paradox; if so, why would they make such a worthless study?
@obi

@freemo So what do you do to account for that? Why are the studies even done if they don't mean anything? That's not meant to be snarky, honest question lol @realcaseyrollins

@freemo @realcaseyrollins I know its a lot to base off just one study, and to scale it towards the entire population, but if it were to that scale in that range (2.8-5.6%) wouldn't that bring the mortality rate down to somewhere between .02 and .06%? That added with the fact that COVID19 attributed deaths dont require a positive test, I'm just saying its not as dire as the media makes it out to be. Of course a lot of people died. A lot of people are always dying. Never good, but we don't do shit about the rest.
