Just doing some general math here. Voat is a low ranked site. The number of upvoats on this (as of 4-10-20 10pm mountain time) is 14. At this moment, there are 16k deaths attributed to SARS-2 (COVID19). If there are 300M people in the US, then the death rate is 1 in 20k. At this point, there is 3 reported deaths in this post (directly known people) and one "friend of a friend" reported death.

Let's assume that 5 % of the people who view this post upvoat. That's 280 views. And let's assume that those 280 people each know about 100 other people. That's a network of about 28k people. So on average, we should have about 1.5 cases of death reported, but we see 4 reported here in the comments. It 4 instead of 1-2 seems plausible, but given that I'm being generous about the upvoats and knowing 100 other people, it seems like there's a little manipulation going on.

My grandma just died of it. She was in the hospital a little over a week

ITT: people in denial

A friends's grandpa has it but my friend said he's very old and was sick already, so it's hard to tell if he really has it or is just dying of age.

I don’t know anyone and I live in San Francisco. Our hospitals are basically empty. We have a senior home in the east bay that was just hit, but after reading the health review of that place, yellow fever is actually a lucky diagnoses.

Seven.

Three friends, two of their wives, both the parents of two other friends of mine, all of these cases are in New Jersey or Pennsylvania. My friends' dad is in the hospital on a ventilator, looking like their mom is going to be getting better soon.

Let me tell y'all when you get groceries you need to wash them all off with soap and water, if you want to save water put what you can out in the sun and rotate them to get some good heat and ultraviolet exposure, same with the bags you get from the grocery store, open one of them put the rest inside that bag and leave it outside in the sun for two days, don't cross contaminate new and old bags. Wash your hands throughout and at the end, and remember to wash the handles and doorknobs you used bringing the groceries in and putting them away.

My roommate thinks she has it...

Nobody in my family line has the disease. None of my neighbors have it. There are, supposedly, a scattering of cases in the hospitals in my area, but I have my doubts about whether they really have Covid-19 or not.

My In-laws are just getting over it right now. Mid 50's and average health, ma had moderate symptoms but nothing requiring hospitalization, pops seemed like a very minor sinus infection. Both are almost completely recovered now.

Go volunteer in a hospital, and deliberately expose yourself to people who they claim to be sick with it. Come back here and post results.

No because testing is nearly nonexistent. I know people that are sick with nearly all the symptoms and will never be able to get tested. Fever only occurs if you get something akin to pneumonia and that's the one symptom you must have to get tested in most states (high fever).

And no one my family knows either... However i was told a lady died of it last wek.. She was 99....

i had a slight coof last week and i died

Not directly, but 5 cases are very close to me.

Nope. Not a soul.

I know 3 people that got it and recovered in around 10-14 days. 33, 34, and 40 were their ages.

My 63 year old, Rachel Maddow watching father had it. He never got tested, though.

My neighbor, a mid sixties, very fit runner just died a few days ago.

Four people I know got sick, one still has limited lung functionality. The other is the mother of a friend of mine. She was confirmed positive. The worry now is for the husband.

Ha! Kevin Bacon.

Yes, 18 year old cousin who completely recovered and the father of my son’s friend who is still sick but getting better.

Nope.

No

Yes. My father tested positive last Friday and by 630pm Monday he had passed away from it. He had a whole host of high risk attributes. He caught it in the hospital.
