Dimwit, your calculation for CV-19 is 1.9% so explain how you support your conclusion, "based on these calculations coronavirus appears no more lethal that the seasonal flu"?

Can you not do simple math? You uneducated Dolt. He took the American numbers of deaths divided by positive cases and compare it to the influenza deaths divided by positive cases. Are you an idiot or just another fear monger.

You are embarrassing yourself without even realizing it. You obvious can’t read. The 1.9% is US (United States) CONFIRMED CASES.

“The number of confirmed coronavirus case in the US is 4743 with 93 deaths. Using the same math, the mortality rate is 1.9%.”

What part of that includes China?

Do the math on # confirmed / # deaths, and its 1/5 the rate of the seasonal flu. If the seasonal flu’s actual death rate, and the 1/5 holds, its significantly less deadly than the seasonal flu. Confirmed cases != actual cases. Most are mild or regular symptoms and don’t go to the doctor.
