The problem is that it has the potential to kill a lot of people like it did in 1918? Will it? Doubtful. It’s a perfect storm type of deal.

I thought so too, so I don't get why the Docs and teachers are being told not to report new cases. The only thing I can figure is that if no individual cases are reported, and the CDC only reports on deaths as gathered from hospital information, then we have no true numbers as to rate of infection vs death. The docs are not even required to submit positive test results to the schools, the state or to the CDC. I would think obviously that that fact will distort the information used to determine not only how widespread this gets, but also how dangerous it is.
