Thank you! Appreciate you doing the math for those of us who aren't strong at numbers!
Thank you for this. May the peace of God be upon you. I am sharing it on Facebook.
Your wife was my favorite author, and her death last year shook me more than my grandmother's death two months earlier. God bless you as you raise your kids and thank you for sharing this. I've had a kiddo on a ventilator with RSV, and I don't want to repeat that experience.
Thank you for sharing! I will pass this video along.
Thank you Daniel.
Thank you for the insight!
Helpful illustration.
Thanks, Man! Take care, and be well.
Yes, very beneficial. Thank you, Dan!
Thank you Dan, we appreciate you! Stay safe ♥
amen - thank you
Nice work! 👍
and your figures come from where??? and how long of a period of time??? cause there is a 99%rate that you will NOT DIE
and going to grocery stores is not dangerous when did you put this out?
SORRY NEVERMIND SEE NOW THAT THIS IS WELL OVER A MONTH AGO...STILL YOUR MATH SEEMED LIKE COMMON CORE...
This is exactly why people should stay off of Social Media. Fear and Panic is created, by people who don't have the mental capacity to look beyond a specific moment in time. #socialmediadistancing
The terminally ill, immune disorders and elderly and those with low immune systems are the ones dying from this virus.
This video means nothing if you forget to take care to boost your immune system and wash your hands.
I do care and have the utmost compassion for y'all that's why I'm bringing awareness. ❤️
Not true. They are not the only ones. All ages and even those with no underlying health problems are dying as well.
Not true.
Not true at all.
I got 19, 683 for COVID-19
He was demonstrating 3^10 (the first multiplication plus nine more). Your number is 3^9.
This math seriously underestimates the real numbers. You need to take this down and do it again. You have to do it by adding each group together as well as by multiplying. You have to add up the people at each level of multiplication. Great job but it's better to fix it than to give people the idea that it's not as bad as it is.
Exactly! The right conclusions are drawn here, but when presenting examples, the math needs to be correct as that's not always the case.
Right! And I'm not math teacher, so I am having trouble explaining how to calculate it correctly even though I know how the math id wrong. Can anyone reading this help to better explain the mistake than I can? Is there a math teacher in the house? 😂😊
The equation for covid would be more like 1+ (1x3) + (total of last parentheses x3) +..... I can only think of how you would calculate it in Excel. 😂

@@ElleDubsDubs Daniel's calculation is correct.
Inventive math. He said 1 tenth of %1? Do it yourself on your own phone. 1/10 or One divided by Ten. I get 0.1. Watch his math skills take a leap from bad to good at minute 1.01 compared to minute 2.23
To get ten percent of something, you multiply by 0.1.
To get one percent of something, you multiply by 0.01
To get one tenth of a percent of something, you multiply by 0.001.
His math is correct.
You're leaving out the percent. 0.1 X 0.01 = 0.1% = 0.001
0.1% converted to a decimal for multiplying is 0.001. (You take away the percent sign and move the decimal 2 spaces to the left). Source for refreshing: www.thebalance.com/convert-percentages-and-decimals-315231
