When you see “only 6%” of trends on Twitter, the next apparent one is “only 6% of what?” Only 6% of dogs wear shoes?
Nope, various Tweets were pulling the 6% number from the following passage on the “Provisional Death Counts for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)” page on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website:
Table 3 shows the types of fitness disorders and the reasons that contribute to the discussion alongside coronavirus-related deaths in 2019 (COVID-19). For 6% of deaths, COVID-19 is the only cause discussed.”
For example, a Twitter account called Mel Q, so as not to be with a sixth member of the Spice Girls, tweeted:
As you can see, Donald J.Trump retwed that tweet. It happens that he is the president of the United States, Trump.So, if the president retwed it, it has to be believable, right?
However, a small challenge with the Tweet @littellmel: it doesn’t describe what the CDC said on the website should be like. So if you search for this Tweet now, get a message that says, “This Tweet will no longer be posted. I had because it violated Twitter rules. “Uh, what are you doing, Mr. President?
Just read the rest of what the CDC said: “For deaths with situations or reasons besides COVID-19, on average, there were 2.6 additional situations or reasons consistent with death.” Take a look at other situations or reasons. They come with things like adult pneumonia, respiratory misery syndrome, respiratory failure, respiratory arrest, other respiratory diseases and sepsis, you know what other people with severe Covid-19 can die of in the end.
For example, think that a user becomes inflamed with the Coronavirus Covid-19, which turns to pneumonia, LRA, respiratory distress and death, and doctors will most likely report more than one as a cause of death. In fact, since Covid-19 leads to all kinds of disorders in the body, the probability is maximum (say more than 90%) anything else is recorded as a cause of death besides Covid-19.
Thus, 6% meant that “only 6%” of the 161,392 deaths recorded lately through the CDC were in fact reported to Covid-19.
Nevertheless, a flurry of Twitter activity ensued:
This included tweets such as the following reporting that only 6% of those who died of Covid-19 had no pre-existing conditions:
As you can see, he commented that “many men have been touched through Covid-19,” in case they didn’t know, and that he’s a “male fitness expert.” This is probably bigger than saying ‘as a clothing expert, many other people dressed in clothing have been affected by Covid-19’. However, what the CDC stated in its does not necessarily mean that “94% of deaths occurred in cases with pre-existing conditions.”
Other people (or Twitter accounts if they weren’t other genuine people) have warned that others no longer take recommended public fitness precautions, such as this Tweet:
And this one:
No, that’s not what the CDC said. Besides, Judas Priest, if you think that means hiding and opening schools, then you have something else to come. Others have tried to take this opportunity to denigrate, marvel, amaze the media and scientists:
Even the actor Hercules jumped into the fray:
At the same time, others have tried to explain what the CDC meant:
Sigh, only the 2020th on Twittersphere.
