Wuhan Flu aka, China Flu aka. Coronavirus infected about 4.1 percent of the population in California’s Los Angeles County That shows the region’s outbreak is far more widespread than previously thought, between 28 and 55 times higher than the number of confirmed cases, new research shows, echoing the findings of a similar study elsewhere in the state.
*****************************************
The data indicates the coronavirus death rate in L.A. County, the most populous in the country, is lower than initially predicted.
Read that again because it’s completely opposed to what you have been told by the Liberal Hate Trump Media. The coronavirus death rate …… is lower than initially predicted. R U surprised?
Researchers from the University of Southern California (USC) and the L.A. Department of Public Health gleaned the data from antibody testing of about 863 county residents. Antibodies are an indication that an individual’s immune system has responded to a past infection.
On Monday, CNBC reported:
USC and the health department released preliminary study results that found roughly 4.1% of the county’s adult population has antibodies to the coronavirus, estimating that between 221,000 adults to 442,000 adults in the county have had the infection.
This new estimate is 28 to 55 times higher than the 7,994 confirmed cases of Covid-19 [coronavirus illness] reported to the county in early April.
The number of coronavirus-related deaths in the county has now surpassed 600, according to the Department of Public Health. The data, if correct, would mean that the county’s fatality rate is lower than originally thought.
