• 1000 may only be 0.0015% of the population but you would still expect close to 7.6% of that 1000 to have caught covid.

    It is entirely possible that 0% of a 1000 sample not have had covid but the odds would be extremely low.

    You'd need to explain that to me a different way, though I'm not great at statistics. Why is it 7.6% of any sample size?

    If I draw a line 100m long, colour in various segments totalling 7.6m randomly in red and use a window 1.5mm wide to view the line (0.0015% of 100'000mm right?) How likely am I to see red?
    It's a virus that has to be transmitted from someone else so the red lines have to be grouped in clumps, right? They're not going to be evenly spaced.
