Fake news. Trump is right.

Rappler : 'we didn't understand what Trump meant, so we are going to make our own interpretation, which fits our narrative' So you are saying 67% of people recover? In worldmeters, you can find 96% recovery from closed cases which makes more sense than your numbers.

What is the definition of recovery?

Get a little closer to stating a 'fact' by dividing today's Cumulative Cases Recovered into the Cumulative Confirmed Cases as of abt 30 days ago. CDC uses 30 days as the average 'recovery period' (when a non-fatal outcome is accounted for) for COVID cases. FAIL

Scientists and researchers have data only on confirmed cases, so they can’t count people not tested for COVID-19. Experts also don’t have info about outcome[s]. However, early estimates predict overall COVID-19 recovery rate is 97% to 99.75%.

U don't get 'case recovery rate' concept (i.e., NOT = total cum recoveries / total cum cases), so pls don't do COVID 'fact checking'. 'Recovery' relates only to 'cases with outcomes' (look it up). OTOH WebMD says overall recovery rate is 97% to 99.75%. FAIL

This is horrible fact checking. If the fatality rate is 2.65%, Rappler thinks recovery rate is 38.88%? 1/3 of the total number of cases are active but that number is also subject to the same fatality rate. googlenews
