“China’s National Health Commission claimed on Wednesday the rate of infection for the new deadly coronavirus originating in central Wuhan city is miraculously declining, directly contradicting estimates by public health experts the spread will continue to accelerate and peak only after a few months and finally begin declining in the summer.”

Maybe the reason is people are locked up in their houses, not venturing outside and self medicating knowing the hospitals can’t help them?

I guess if you die, then technically you don’t have the virus anymore.

As a population approaches a 100% infection, the rate of infection will slow, as there are fewer and fewer people left to be infected.

That could be it.

Or maybe the fact that surrounding villages are putting up fences and making spears to throw at any infected that try to get into their town!!!

This flu is different in that it causes pneumonia, and attacks oxygen generation in the lungs.

Hospitals have to put those flu people on Ventilators.

There is limited number of ventilators in a hospital, so if the flu patients needing them out number the available ventilators, a higher death rate can be expected.- Tom
