The flu has a reservoir of hosts and a proven mortality rate of 0.1%. The Wu Han Virus has no reservoir and at least in China is still spreading exponentially, with a current mortality rate of 2% - 20 times higher (based on CCP propaganda numbers) - or, if you want to use only the statistics of resolved cases (got better or died) about a 30% mortality rate - 300 times that of the flu, far higher even than the boogeyman of modern disease lore, the Spanish Flu which weighed in at a measly 10%.

You are erroneously comparing two different animals and two different situations. Use bogus comparisons to justify sticking your own head in the sand, but you shouldn’t post when you are not using a valid basis or even legitimate statistics.

While you are right not to panic, you are wrong to dismiss this thing given the data we have thus far. It bears watching closely.

Experts in this country are saying the mortality rate is predicted to be around two percent.

Stop spreading fear.
