The writing is already on the wall. 2 1/2 months into this with 260 deaths.

The thing is so overhyped and overblown.

Cuomo said today there are 34,000 flu deaths this year. This virus won’t even kill 5,000.

Trump will look like a genius.

Thank you very much for putting in the extra effort. (10,000 new deaths would have *really* driven people to panic / trashed FR's reputation.) It looks great!

Thanks and sorry again. I had copied the text and coding from Firefox "View selection source" and had to edit some of that, and was in a rush and thought that it would pass, without seeing how skewed it really was. When I saw the latter being pointed out, I quickly pasted the actual text from the World o meter page the page into a html document in a word pro, and which page I had loaded in my browser, made all the borders visible. Then I saved and refreshed that web page and copied and pasted the "View selection source" text and coding and reviewed and posted it with 3 minutes to go before I had to leave.

Leave and learn, by the grace of God.

There are 112 wtotal cases in Utah as of today. Your chart says 114 deaths.

Actually both versions of the page saw 112. You must be looking at the row above. See the clearer version in post 20 if you will. Or just click on the ling to the original source page.

What is the average recovery period?

Good question. Some say 2 to 4 weeks.

If it becomes uncontainable, we should remove economic restrictions and let it run its course, like swine flu. At some point, containment is counterproductive. At the same time, we can provide targeted aid to those most at risk, and we can remove regulatory burdens to getting proper drugs, etc.

While many dismiss that as unthinkable, it should be considered an open in the light of the alternative.

Here are a couple of stats on the “flue” in the last 12 months. This is from https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/preliminary-in-season-estimates.htm. 38,000,000 – 54,000,000 flu illnesses 17,000,000 – 25,000,000 flu medical visits 390,000 – 710,000 flu hospitalizations 23,000 – 59,000

And according to one report by the CDC, an estimated 80,000 people died of the flu in U.S during the 2017-2018 season the highest death toll in 40 years. (https://www.usnews.com/news/health-care-news/articles/2018-09-27/cdc-80-000-people-died-of-flu-complications-last-season-in-us) During the 2017-2018 season, the percentage of deaths attributed to pneumonia and influenza (P&I) was at or above the epidemic threshold for 16 consecutive weeks. Nationally, mortality attributed to P&I exceeded 10.0% for four consecutive weeks, peaking at 10.8% during the week ending January 20, 2018, (https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/season/flu-season-2017-2018.htm) with older Americans dying at a rate of 169 Americans a day, or seven people per hour. (https://www.aarp.org/health/conditions-treatments/info-2018/older-flu-deaths-rising.html

Need to scroll all the way down to the bar graphs on each country’s page for daily new cases and deaths.
