There is no NONE ZERO accurate information coming out of China and never will be

The only way to gauge this flu is what stats are released by western countries for their patients and, then, after it passes, extrapolate back to China. Everything else is worthless and a waste of time number wise.

"The only way to gauge this flu is what stats are released by western countries for their patients..."

Except that here, in the U.S.A., it appears that only people with lab tests are counted for infections and deaths (see flu statistics). Cause of death (without a test): heart disease, pneumonia, asthma, etc. I know someone who was diagnosed a few years ago as having had an asthma attack after being hospitalized with pneumonia that resulted from a flu. The case occurred in a popular tourist area.

It looks like our own medical racket will count cases with methods similar to those of the Chinese--confirmed (tested) cases only. So we may never know the truth except for what we each see in our immediate locales and from news stories that draw accusations of fake news from various market and political interests.
