“COVID-19 is considerably worse than the seasonal flu.”

By what measure?? You are too easily gaslighted into believing this nonsense.

Hi CodeToad,

Please go to the website to which I pointed you and look at the data. There is much more than Italy there. For example, New York has a total of 8,400 cases, with about 3,000 alone in the last complete 24 hour reporting period. It is the rate of increase that is the concern, as well as the number of individuals who will eventually become seriously ill.

I would like to think otherwise, but we are facing a very serious health crisis. The reaction to it might actually make the situation worse in some ways, considering the financial repercussions, but it would be very difficult to watch so many people die in such a short time period without trying to help.
