The Diamond Princess cruise ship tells us a lot about this China virus… 3,711 passengers and crew were quarantined in Japan together in tight quarters with the virus present for a month.. : only 712 cases / 699 recovered.. (most with no symptoms ?) .. All 3,711 were tested ..
13 people died… a largely elderly population likely with pre-existing health issues...
Mortality rate for all in the U.S. population would likely be less...

Actually, that tells us very little about the virus and much more about public perception. The perception is that no risk is too small to ignore. A major element of the public progressive politicians will only be satisfied with 100% no-risk. They will put up with onerous protocols because ‘if it saves one life it’s worth it’.
