Take a breath and read the rest of the discussion.
Even disregarding reports that intentional underreporting is happening, the number is pretty high (4%) regardless of the basis number.
I don’t know anything that everyone else doesn’t know. Neither do you.
I have read the rest which is why I responded. The false impression is that 4% of those infected die. The 4% at this time is only based on hospitalizations.
In that sense, 4% is less than the flu. When you disregard “the basis number” you’re out of context and misrepresent the facts.
You’re right in that it’s something to watch, but it’s nothing to panic about at this time.
