1 of every 32 Americans have or has had the positive Covid virus.
In a gathering of 50 people, there is a 69% probability that someone has a positive infection.
In a gathering of 15 people, there is a 29% probability of a positive person.
Scary numbers if you are a WalMart shopper or must work in a public position.

No way it killed 200,000 unless that number is worldwide deaths. Probably the same people saying that are the ones that said reefer trailers were being used as temporary morgues.
My sons mother in law had been unresponsive for two years in a coma. A result of diabetes. She died at the end of June. Of covid 19 of course.

There Is a 69% chance that one or more people in that group of 50 is positive. Could be one or more and could be zero. More likely that it Is more than zero than that it Is zero, since 69% is greater than 50%. Does not say that 69% have Covid.
Did that answer your question?

They do make them wear the mask but I don't think a mask will keep you from getting it if you are in constant with it. The odds are really high that she had been in contact with the virus many many times. My mom went to the chiropractor and later found out he tested positive 2 day after she was there. She didn't wear a mask she went got tested and was negative. Over 95 percent of the people the chiropractor was in contact with got it. All that is nuts if I believe the TV and the media and a few on here that means my whole family should be dead. My wife is a sheep and follows the mask rules. I dont go to public place much so I dont see a need for me to were one. probably cause they make her wear a zombie proof mask Matt28

Anybody got an explanation for that? The testing or the quarantine? Quarantine rules vary but depends on whether he's classified ad being exposed. Being "exposed" has changed so many times I can't remember what they are now off hand
