As far as mortality rates, it is very confusing, and I am beginning to wonder if ANYBODY really has a good handle on it. With recurring reports now coming out about the extreme hush-hush numbers of actual deaths in China, I really don't know what to believe.

BTW, do you have a good source for O2 bottles with the military fitting on them? It's hard to breath through this thing, even without the CRU-60P connector … lol.

I'll call a few of my buddies still on active duty to see if we can set you up. As far as China's actual mortality rate, I used Italy's transmission rate and mortality percentage as my baseline. I came up with 2.5 million infections and 292,450 deaths. I calculated this based on China's full population (1.428 billion). It's probably not accurate but neither are the numbers coming out of CCP. Using the CDC numbers, the U.S. has had a mortality rate that varies between a low of 1.3% of infections to a high on 2.0% of infections, but as this thing climbs toward peak infections these stats will change dramatically.
