The WHO last reported it at 3.4%. That’s at least 10x higher mortality rate than the flu. It’s also more transmissable than the flu.
Yes, the flu kills tens of thousands each year and the total number of cases and deaths from covid-19 is not nearly that large yet. People who keep saying this to downplay the situation are missing the point though. We don’t want this to go into permanent circulation! We don’t need another, worse flu every year on top of the existing diseases. We need this to go the way of SARS and MERS.
I'm at the center of the outbreak and I'm not too worried about my family's health. But I am concerned that the response has been too lackadaisical on many levels and containment may soon be a lost hope.
I know you haven't missed any pages with your intent on downplaying everything so you should already know there's been posts, tweets and graphs trying to say only the elderly is susceptible.No one claimed it was fake. But you are suggesting that people are claiming this only kills really old people. ABSOLUTELY no one has said that.
How are we being complacent? Do we have to be like you and post every new event to not be complacent? Is that how we save our loved ones?
Flu kills more and is more contagious. Calmness down. This is not that big of a deal.
You love to understate the lunacy of those you agree with and overstate the lunacy of those you disagree with. You have the consistency of cottage cheese.Please. She's not genuinely saying people with coronavirus should seek out Trump supporters to infect them. That is the point of the joke.
Your statement that was her actual intent is absurd.
