Yet most people have caught Covid anyway.
The official statistics on Covid deaths in India showed a mortality rate 1/10th that of the US. There would need to be more than an order of magnitude error in reporting for their death rate to exceed that of the US.…
Covid seems to be, physically and emotionally, a primarily Western disease. And as bad as the fallout has been where I live, it seems to have been particularly damaging in the US (on both of those counts).
Statistically, a social circle comprised of first world, Western, overweight and inactive and generally older folk should have the most susceptibility to death from Covid.
I have a working hypothesis that a very large number of people don't personally know anyone who has died of Covid, except maybe for an elderly relative and "they were getting on a bit anyway". It's true of me and anyone…

They sure are. They are selling budget, cobbled-together hardware that "supports FOSS", when in reality you are the one providing that support.
It's probably coming for us all. The increasingly saturated smartphone market will not provide the sales that manufacturers need to maintain the current economies of scale. That is, unless they perfect the art of phones…
>This lancet paper represents a pretty good consensus belief The paper represents an effort to support a particular hypothesis using curve-fitting. The Bible represents a "pretty good consensus belief".
Not the entire truth - they also have a £700 million equal pay settlement to pay out.
I've never heard "traige" used with such negative connotations! FWIW, the term used by the NHS is "QALYS", or "Quality-adjusted life year". Yes, these calculations are made at all levels of health care.
