COVID – why terminology really, really matters
[And the consequences of getting it horribly wrong]
When is a case not a case?
"In stark contrast, on August 16th, there were 3,000 cases. Fourteen days later there were 26 deaths. Which means that, in March, 36% of ‘cases’ died. In August 0.8% of ‘cases’ died. This, in turn, means that COVID was 45 times as deadly in March, as it was in August?
This seems extremely unlikely. If fact, it is so unlikely that it is, in fact, complete rubbish. What we have is a combination of nonsense figures which, added together, create nonsense squared. Or nonsense to the power ten."
This is an EXCELLENT ARTICLE by Dr. Kendrick who dives into the MISUSE of terminology to describe COVID in terms of case fatality and infection fatality rate and all of the other aspects of modeling an epidemic. Worth reading and sharing!
