Hundreds of times more people have died from the common flu, based on what I’ve seen. Runs on stores, the hysteria, are just nuts.
At least it has people really keen about their hygiene. Otherwise, it’s nuts hysteria. Near as I can tell.
“Hundreds of times more people have died from the common flu, based on what I’ve seen.”
Everybody has been exposed to the flu, many times, every season. We have herd immunity and vaccines.
Nobody has been exposed to this and there is no herd immunity or vaccine.
CV kills at least 10 time as many infected people as the flu.
The whole point of the reaction by governments around the world is to keep the case count low while we develop countermeasures. Like a vaccine.
If this spreads like the flu it will overwhelm our HCS and kill 1 in 15 like in Italy. There will be additional deaths because the HCS won’t be able to handle the heart attacks, crash victims, strokes, common flu, etc., either.
The hysteria comes from all the people that were told “it’s just the flu” who suddenly find themselves unprepared for the social distancing, closures, lockdowns, cancellations, quarantines and so forth that are happening here and now. We’ve been saying for 6 weeks “it might”, and then, “it will” happen, but the complacents thought it was more important to sling insults and spout conspiracy theories.
How many more people will need to die before the complacents admit it isn’t just the flu?
