I added the PCR false positives.

Since Q is here and this may get more eyes anyone else have any suggestions as what I could add/improve?

Total covid-19 statistics as of May 8th in the United States

Deaths: 47,128

Infections (confirmed and suspected): 1,248,040

Covid19 tests done: 8,110,000

United States Population: 330,721,730

Percentage of people tested have covid19: 15.38%

Extrapolate to US population of likely possible infected: 0.1538 x 330,721,730 = 50,865,002

Death rate: 0.092%

How does this compare to the 2017-2018 flu season?

*Numbers are approximate due to how flu is reported

Total flu infections: 48.8 million

Total deaths: 79,400

This is a 0.16% death rate.

Secondary evidence this lockdown/social distancing is unnecessary:
