Yes, but by the time those later cases die, there will be even more new cases added to the list. Also this stuff was all relative (to the mortality rate of 2020) so it doesn't really matter
but yes the true mortality rate could only be figured in a hospital study or something like that.
Because capitalism isn't everything, and depraved gulag-worthy behavior/people would still exist in a perfectly communist system, albeit at a significantly lower rate than in capitalism
So what’s the number going to look like a week or two from now?
the same. Mortality rate is total deaths/total cases.
the only way the mortality rate would get worse in a matter of days is if hospitals started running out of oxygen like in India. India's fiasco in May was 100% down to poor management + lack of resources of the UK-Kent variant, not anything to do with the new Delta one.
serious opinion though, anime in general is actually somewhat Asian looking.
On one hand It definitely overemphasizes light features, in order to appeal to white money (look at pre-90s anime and you'll see tons of dark hair colors, Ranma 1/2, astroboy). so the casual observer says anime "just looks white" and ends there (and they're...somewhat correct).
But if you can look past the pigment part, they don't look "Caucasoid" at all. They tend to have really wide faces, upturned noses, upturned eyes, spiky hair etc
So many ask "why does anime look white", and it's valid to criticize the lack of dark skinned chars and abundance of white-coded chars. But at the same time I think it's eurocentrically ignorant to ignore the obvious "european-coded" look that animators use for characters of EXPLICITLY euro descent, (longer face, more convex nose, etc) showing that the JP anime characters ARE supposed to look physically distinct from "white people".
Also I think that Europeans and especially Americans, because of the racial diversity, are overreliant on color cues, and less likely to notice structural stuff in the face (when everyone's the same color you pay more attention to facial structure).
It's also unintentionally disingenuous to equate the blindingly diverse colors of anime to the...much less diverse colors of actual europeans. Diverse colors ARE there, but...90% of Europeans are just brown haired to slightly-lighter brown haired, with brown or drab grey eyes, a far cry from crystal platinum blonde and sea-green eyes and flaming red hair, which are honestly pretty rare. Not to mention green/pink/purple etc impossible colored hair/eyes.
Actual Japanese people don't usually perceive anime characters as white, and I see why. There's also a behavioral thing for me where the pace at which they talk, and the mannerisms they have, are COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY DIVORCED from actual Americans--I have a lot of trouble thinking of anime characters as being explicitly European, EVEN the ones for whom it's canon in the story.
That means we reduced the mortality rate by just 58% roughly.
someone double check my math because I did that in my head due to laziness
i know it sounds like a humblebrag but being honest
There’s still this sense that if you’re vaccinated, you’re good to go.
It's true though. Based on American cultural values up to and including now, you are good to go if you're vaccinated (your grandmother, someone else's kid, preventing future superbugs etc is another story)
You know exactly what those values are, and there's no contradiction here.
walk 1.5 miles to tank museum, use the tanks to drive to monkey world and free all the monkeys, then drive the tanks to your local cough DONUT PLACE and put the monkeys inside of them
hilarity and [redacted] ensues
then allow monkey to live in banana forest built on top of the ashes of the donut place~~ :soviet-huff:
thanks, I got banned for posting ICE stuff, reason given was "fedposting". I'm definitely not a fed, and I won't do that again if it's actually against the rules (I didn't think it was)
