Stupid shit in Medellin

If you are able to discuss it in a polite / respectful way, Sure! Lets go fir. Otherwise. F.

Why do you insist others hold to a standard which you refuse to abide by?

[JjBee62]

You don't know what you are talking about. A million million? We call that a Trillion not a Billion. You aren't smart enough to take the vaccine and now you want to wade into a statistical discussion?

Seriously dude? Come back when you can pass a grade school math equivalency test.

Whenever someone is discussing world population and throw out "8 billion" it's glaringly obvious they are referring to 8,000,000,000. There's no ambiguity, no question whatsoever about the value being discussed.

Really, you are the worst of the worst in assuming you are correct, and then criticising others despite being wrong! Haha.

Just take a humility pill, man. It will help you get along with people better.

Once again, you are arguing about factors of a thousand and the OP was wrong by a factor of a hundred. So for those who can count to three, the OP was off by two decimal places and you are arguing about differences of three decimal places. But unvaccinated people are stupid by definition at this point, so it is not surprising you can't figure that out.

I should take a humility pill? Sure guy anything you say. I thought we were having our discussion in English American style? Did someone go back to medieval long scales? No.

If you would improve your reading skill you would have understood the context of the discussion. We were talking about 5 million deaths from CoVid and a world population of 8 billion. That wasn't 8 billion on the long scale or else the population of the earth would be 8 trillion using the universally accepted numerical system. Only a 3rd grader could have made that mistake.

If you are able to discuss it in a polite / respectful way, Sure!.

I called you on it earlier, as did several other people, and you did not and cannot verify your assertions. So, politely and respectfully, you are completely and totally full of shit, and are a selfish unvaccinated asshole who continues to fuck hookers. So when the mandate hits Colombia, please do not let the door hit you in the ass.

'The short scale is used in most English-speaking and Arabic-speaking countries, in Brazil, and in several other countries. ' And this is an English speaking forum, and did I mention you are completely full of shit?

[JustTK]

Possibly in your native language but certainly not in English, where a million million is a trillion. Now let's get back to you being completely full of shit about what that study you posted meant.

First off, Norway and Finland were formerly parts of Sweden. The great Finnish patriot, Carl GUSTAF Mannerheim, spoke Swedish as he was of Swedish nobility. The Finns did mot of the heavy fighting for King Karl Gustaf the Great of Sweden.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_to_Sweden

Wikipedia tells us the great increases in Swedish population and in Swedish crime are from Africa and similar toilets. Muslims who cam, e to Sweden decades ago came to work. Now they come to scrounge on Sweden's great security system and to commit crime. These people do not assimilate in Sweden, Germany, France or anywhere else. In Germany, for example, they support the Turkish not the German football team. Parts of the Netherlands and Belgium are ISIS safe havens.

The future is the medieval city state or the mad Max type we associate with the toilet of the USA and Latin America. Wealth, gated communities and savages beyond them.

Though Europe is the heart of the civilised world and Germany is the pinnacle of engineering, the fact is for every one German engineer Germany can throw at a problem, China can throw 100 or 1000 if need be. The US model of simply stealing superior German grey matter is likewise running out of track.

I am unsure what this stupid shit is about. By all means, be stupid. But do not be that stupid.

Well, I'll give you props for doing your homework. You're still wrong, mind you but you did show some modest intelligence by trying to do your research. Here is the problem in what you came up with:

Yes, Sweden does have about 30% of its population having come from other countries but of that 30% (something close to 10% (1/3 of the 30% came from Norway, Denmark and Finland. And then some more came from Germany too. The largest historical group of immigrants are from Finland. In other words your 30% is greatly exaggerated. AND a number of the immigrants that did come to Sweden over the years, intermarried and assimilated which means that although you may have Swedes with one immigrant parent they still possess genetic characteristic of the general Swedish population.

[Huacho]

Math teacher: 'The formula for the area of a circle is Pi are-squared. '.

TK and Elvis: 'That can't be right! Pi are round and cake are square. '.

[Villainy]

This is laughable, around 30% of the population in Sweden are immigrants or children of immigrants while in Finland it's closer to 5%. Good luck finding any Swede to agree with you that Sweden is "genetically homogenous".

There are actually 2 different billions (a thousand million, or a million million), so both of you are right in a way. But both are wrong in a way too.

And he's off by a factor of a hundred, not by a factor of a thousand. People who don't understand numbers should not be allowed to use them for anything.

Excelss deaths show that 11.7 miilions may have died from COVID. So out out 7. 753 billion (using short scale), that's 0. 15%, or 1,500 deaths per million (which is the common stat expression).

You don't know what you are talking about. A million million? We call that a Trillion not a Billion. You aren't smart enough to take the vaccine and now you want to wade into a statistical discussion?

As for the vaccine preventing transmission, that is not only obvious from the data, the CDC has come out and said the vaccine does not prevent transmission, so again I do not know what the fuck you are talking about.

Oh dear. Let's try this in a simple way so that even Elvis can grasp the concept.

The vaccine doesn't prevent transmission. But stay with me for just a few more seconds. What does the vaccine do? It makes it a lot less likely you will get CoVid in the first place. And if you do get a breakthrough case of CoVid you are a lot less likely to have severe consequences. Stick with the first part. The vaccine makes it a whole lot less likely that you will be infected with CoVid. So take two groups. One group is vaccinated and the other group isn't. Which group will more likely get infections? See'Mon. Elvis you can get this one right. It is binary, so you are 50-50. Answer: The unvaccinated group is more likely to get infected. By extension (simple arithmetic) more members of the unvaccinated group are likely to get infected with CoVid than from the vaccinated group. Now we get to the next part. If the unvaccinated group has a lot more people infected than the vaccinated group. Isn't the unvaccinated group much more likely to pass along the virus to family members or other members they come in contact with? (For Elvis: That was a rhetorical question. The answer would be obvious to any 3rd grader.).

The number of USA cases recorded is 47 million. CDC estimates put it at around 100 million. Again, you are attributing their number to me.

I'm using the 47 million reported on Worldometer. You constantly banter that the CDC can't be trusted, can't be believed, lack competence etc etc etc but you choose to use their number when it suits your purposes. Isn't that the classic example of shopping around for a number you like for your argument. Pick a number here, pick one there, Pick one on aisle 3. C'mon. Elvis try to be consistent.

People who are unable to perform basic math (and not to name names but there are several on here. Just read more of this thread) usually feel statistics are bogus. Mostly because they don't understand them. Science largely uses statistics to analyze and evaluate events. Of course if the inputs are flawed so are the statistics. But in time more inputs are available and eventually the statistics accurately reflect reality.
Fascinating! So you think that 5 million of 8 billion was. . 000625% (which, of course, most 3 graders would tell you is not correct).
https://www.calculator.net/percent-calculator.html I'm linking a percent calculator to help you out in the future.
But the correct percentage would be: 0. 0625%.
