Scott Atlas: ‘Fantastic News’ That We Have a Lot of Coronavirus Cases Without Rise in Death Rate

‘What that means is that we are doing a better job detecting the vulnerable, and we are in good shape here’

RUSH EXCERPT:

ATLAS: “We expected more cases with more social mingling and of course as you are saying, we had a lot of social mingling and it has to be weeks. With that social mingling, going to see more cases. With more testing, we will detect more cases but the fact is the overwhelming majority of these cases are younger, healthier people. These people do not have a significant problem, they do not have the serious complications, they do not die. So it’s fantastic news that we have a lot of cases but we don’t see deaths going up. What that means is that we are doing a better job detecting the vulnerable, and we are in good shape here. We like the fact that there’s a lot of cases in low risk populations because that’s exactly how we are going to get herd immunity, when low risk people with no significant problem handling this virus which is basically 99% of people who get this become immune and they block the pathways of connectivity to more contagious, sick of people.”
