Look at the data for the death rate OUTSIDE of Hubei. The panic mongers want to ignore that fact for some reason:

South Korea, 10 deaths out of 977.
Cruise ship 3 out of 691.
Japan 1 out 170.

There are clowns here who desperately want the end of the world. These are the same idiots who wish-cast Category 5 hurricanes and blizzards right on their own houses in the weather forums.

We really don’t have all the facts, and the data doesn’t support the “OH NOES WE ARE ALL DOOMEZ” mantra from a certain segment of the population who really, really hate President Trump and want to see him defeated because they would rather have a magic underpants in charge.

'South Korea, 10 deaths out of 977. Cruise ship 3 out of 691. Japan 1 out 170.'

Those numbers are very high. You wouldn't fly with such odds or drive a car around.

So, people can see the math. It is not by any stretch of the imagination a 1000 times worse than the flu.

South Korea, 10 deaths out of 977. (.01)
Cruise ship 3 out of 691. (.004)
Japan 1 out 170. (.005)
