>>11464523>Swine flu had a death rate of 0.01% and Wu Flu has 3.4%I can tell you lack critical thinking skills but Swine Flu started out with a reported death rate of 7% and this started out with a reported death rate of 2-3%. Once proper statistical modelling was available for Swine Flu (rather than relying on the - most serious, reported cases) the actual death rate plummeted to 0.09%. This is an exact repeat of the Swine Flu 2009 panic so far, maybe you zoomies are too young to remember it but there were quarantines, flight bans, massive panic, and stock market crashes amid the hysterical media describing the apocalypse, just like now.
When proper testing is conducted, taking into account asymptomatic cases, as it happened in Germany and South Korea, corona ends up being much less scary, with 0.1% and 0.8% death rates respectively in these countries.
The fact that this virus mostly affects the elderly and those with underlying health conditions is also consistent with a low death rate.
Finally, in the Diamond Princess cruise ship, 3/5 of the cases were asymptomatic. If we extend this to the reported cases so far, the death rate also plummets to less than 1%.
