Wonder why didn’t the FR Corvid fan club not post this?
Democrats are devastated over this good news.
Relatively useless information unless the race, age and underlying medical conditions of those dying are revealed. The CDC and WHO have the data but are refusing to release it.
In spite of the babbling of government bureaucrats, the fatality rate is 3.46%. 109747 cases, 3802 deaths = 3.46%
May be? MAY BE? Really? After you scared everyone senseless already by not giving truthful stats and background of those dying (already bad sick, or very elderly)? The media needs to pay for what they’ve done.
Earlier today someone posted a report by the CEO of a virus research institute who claims the Wuhan virus is the worst most dangerous virus he’s ever seen. He said that up to 70% of the planet would become infected and as many as 10% would require hospitalization and half will die.
Wonder how much that 8.3 BILLION DOLLARS of gov’t (our) money influenced his learned opinion? Hmmm?
And the Dems are bummed. Clearly, they want massive casualties. Sad, I know.

FReeper the-sky-is-falling chicken little, nattering nabobs of negativism coronavirus alarmists are greatly saddened by such good news ...
Since only very sick people are getting tested, and very sick people are obviously more likely to die, I can believe that this is true.
The bigger questions are how widely is it spreading, and how fast.
It’s just the flu.
We never did buy the crap sandwich they were trying to sell.
They don’t know the mortality.
It hasn’t been here long enough, and not enough confirmed infections.
Conjecture of .1% is just as dangerous as conjecture of 2-3%.
Some here at FR will be sooo disappointed
I’m still waiting to die from Ebola, or, SARS, or MERS
Here is data for when a large sample of people are actually tested ...
South Korea has tested 140,000 people for the coronavirus. That could explain why its death rate is just 0.6% — far lower than in China or the US.

It’s got a 5% fatality rate in Italy, as of now. It’s orders of magnitude worse than the flu.
I assume the death toll from regular flu will be reduced.
In related news a delivery of Xanax arrived at the DNC HQ this afternoon.
Won’t stop the angst-hungry idjits from staying in panic mode...
Funny how they will laugh at Gore’s “Inconvenient Truth” because they know it’s hyped up BS, but seem to be starving for bad news to go insane over with the little bug running around....even as they also know that it’s the latest and greatest “Great Dem Hope Virus” and that the Left is leveraging it at full speed.
