What am I missing, when I download the .pdf it says "Planning Scenario". Where is the actual data saying mortality is 0.26%?

Costly, costly mistake in taking down the economies of the entire world! Yet, the perpetrators are still free and stand to make money off it while up to a billion and maybe more lose jobs, homes, broken marriages, etc. !!!

6 in 1 million sounds low. That would mean that COVID deaths under 65 would be less than 6 x 300 (300 million population) in USA if everyone got COVID. That’s only 1800 deaths under 65. I agree the overall death rate of 0.26% sounds right.

It's still important to respect others by not catching or spreading them. When we get sick, it can mean not going to work or not being able to exercise which isn't healthy for us. I'm sure that many of the readers here would agree.

O o p s! Do you think Google can label the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention information as Fake News or will they have to admit that the experts who said this all along were not purveyors of fake news?
