“Because it’s 20 times deadlier that the flu and there is a chance to stop it or slow it down.”

No, it is not. You need to stop believing everything you read on the Internet.

The flu kills 0.1%.
The US at last report had 68 cases of Coronavirus and 1 death from it. That’s a 1.5% rate. And only 7 of the 68 have recovered, so we might have more deaths in that group. Hope not.

Do the math 1.5%/.01% = 15 times more likely. But that’s a better experience than most other nations with more than few cases have seen.

Like the beautiful young Russian girl that’s going to come here to marry me as soon as she gets the visa thing cleared up?
