No no the numbers I didnt give were peak. According to the CDC the **annual** flu numbers tend to range from ~30K to 50K a year, these arent peak. We have some outlier years that were not the norm due to singifnicant temporary world events (like economic lock down), but during "normal" years those numbers are typical, **not** peak.

So while im happy to agree to disagree we seem to disagree onfundemental facts not interpritation.

Also, never feel obligated to respond, just as I should never feel obligated not to give my response.

> There are many Jeffrey P Freemans out there. Are you researching mycology or aerodynamics, for example?

Sounds like you found me, I have helped author papers on aerodynamics, mycology one isnt me though. You will also find quite a few in the biology field, Physics, Biochemistry, COVID-19, software, algorithms, and some purely math stuff. If you search for my full name everything you find is likely to be mine, make sure you include my initial.

> You can't link a single article? You don't have a C.V. handy?

You keep links to your work physically on you whe your away from home. Maybe if you stopped being an asshole troll I might value the conversation enough to invest the rather minimal effort it would take to get the link while im away from home. As it stands right now the most you earn is my orcid when im bored enough to go get it for you.

No one said its only them. The others just dont need help, so they **can** be lazy (since they did enough work to not need help and now can be lazy)... in some cases its just luck too, which again is find since they dont need help so they can be lazy.

Its not that poor people are the only ones lazy, its just that the poor people who are lazy is a problem when you want to get people out of needing help.

Sure I'd be happy to share it, again just search for my name youll be able to find any of the dozens of papers I've authored.

The fact that you couldnt even do the simple math to figure out the number of posts I make a month I dont expect any interaction with you to be valuable or well informed. But your welcome to look up any of my papers and if I get the sense you evolve from troll to scholar Ill even be happy to engage you.

When im done work if your still unable to figure out how to do an author search on google scholar ill link you my orcid when i get home.

> Making the same mistake twice in rapid succession isn't a typo, especially with a common misspelling.

Thats a lot of words for saying "its a typo you make often".. typos are specific type of misspelling where the person known the correct spelling but either commonly mistypes the same way, or simply doesnt care in casual conversation to make the extra key presses on their phone.

I do **not** care about my spelling or grammar when I make replies online so long as I can be understood. Why you think anyone will care about the nature of my typos or what it may reflect is beyond me. But as is clear, no one gives a shit about some typos. Nice try though.

@justpeachy @Pineywoozle @realcaseyrollins @MoiraEve @georgetakei

@ikuo1000

Why isnt putting it into perspective relevant? Simply put per year:

Flu: ~30K - 50K, or ~600/week to 1K/week.

Covid, we dont have long term trends post lock-down. But since july its ~600/week to 1.2K per week.

Pnumonia is ~50K per year.

I think its very relevant to point out COVID is about as deadly as most non-trivial respertory diseases. Which is to say it **is** deadly but you shouldnt be loosing any more sleep over it than you did 10 years ago.

Trolling would give him to much intellectual credit. Pretty sure he is just a moron.

@DoesntExist @justpeachy @Pineywoozle @realcaseyrollins @MoiraEve @georgetakei

@DoesntExist

I do yes, in fact youll find most of the typos I couldnt give a shit about in a reply here wouldnt appear in a peer reviewed paper. I also tend to read peer-reviewed papers 10 times over to find them.

Do you always use childish reasons like typos to troll people?

@DoesntExist

Sorry I see you dont understand. HackerNews is a place where things get posted that often results in a lot of traffic due to its popularity, it is owned by YC. To put it more simply, I was the first one from the fediverse to ever show up in the #1 rank here: https://news.ycombinator.com/

@justpeachy @Pineywoozle @realcaseyrollins @MoiraEve @georgetakei

What a moron, this guy thinks I dont even exist, lol.

@DoesntExist

Do the math. I have been ont he fedi for about 5 years now and have 52K toots... go back to school if you think that equates to 9K per month. You can verify this by simply looking at the date of my first toot.

@justpeachy @Pineywoozle @realcaseyrollins @MoiraEve @georgetakei

@DoesntExist

Oh and as for my credentials, a quick search on google scholar would land you with tons of peer review papers I am listed as an author too.... man your a fucking joke.

@justpeachy @Pineywoozle @realcaseyrollins @MoiraEve @georgetakei

@DoesntExist

If I send you pictures of my dad with Biden at his house will admit your a dumbass?

And since when do I have 9000 posts a month?

as for having 30K followers, yea im very well known on the fediverse. I was the first one to get a post on both HackerNews and YCombinator... My account is also one of the older ones on the fedi.

The fact that you think im fake is kinda laughable.

There is video of him saying it. The fact that he used broken english to say it is particularly telling of his racist mindset.

@mps262

Sure, and do you understand how "worst" and "one of worst" are entirely different things? You do understand quoting part of a senstence and representing it as the whole sentence is dishonest and manipulative?

@MoiraEve @georgetakei

@ikuo1000 @Gbudd @BlueWaver22

Not sure why the other CDC link I gave earlier shows 41K deaths due to influenza including pnumonia.

Again regardless this is all misisng the point. Flu routinely spike causing 1000 deaths a week, sometimes its less sometimes its more. COVID also tends to spike up and down. The point is 1000 deaths a week is not unusual for FLU at least as ballpark, and very comparable to COVID.

For example week 50 of 2022 had 1048 flu and related deaths during that one week. Granted this is a peek. You can find it here: https://www.cdc.gov/flu/weekly/index.htm#NCHSMortality

Similarly from July of 2022 to today we have had anywhere from 400 on weekly numbers up to 1.2K, which again shows my original point, that while COVID is certainly a bit more deadly these numbers are now in flu territory. higher, but in a similar ballpark at this point.

@ambihelical An AI related platform for data scientists, at its vore its an algorithm that will, I hope, bring about AGI. It is an AI capable of proficiently writing algorithms.

@ikuo1000

Regardless of anything else.. right now covid deaths are around 1000 per week and flu deaths are also around 1000 per week at the moment. The rest of the details are less important regarding what the average was over some arbitrary time period.
