4.8% fatality rate.

“I keep seeing people post this, but where is the supporting study? Could it be simply a case of most of the infections to date have been in Asia - where mostly Asians live? I’ve seen one incomplete study that ranked susceptibility by race, but in no way said this was a predominantly Asian thing. Smoking was a bigger factor. Is there a better, more complete study that has the racial data and controls for environmental factors?”

Mortatility rate in China is 3.4% Per WHO. 2.4% elsewhere as an average.
How can you reverse engineer a pangolin virus?
How I ask!?
You see, the leftists attempting to lay this on Trump are bonafide racist white supremacists. Because if you remember even back to Trump's earliest rallies part of Trump's Border plans included medical treatment and quarantine facilities which would function in much the same way Ellis Island functioned.
So basically most of the left emphatically declared that disease control is a white supremacist construct.
I'm not going to let this one go and just as the fake Indian jab continues to hit home with undiminished effect this one is going to hurt them.
The secret is to be consistent and unrelenting.
If they think there should be quarantine then they are (by their own rules) demanding white supremacy. And only a surrender monkey who is thoroughly ready to submit to the communism they are selling would allow them to walk this one back.
We actually don’t know the ethnicities of those mortalities from Italy yet. Italy does have Chinese communities in its large cities. The death in France was still a Chinese tourist. We do know they’ve all been elderly, the same demo that would die from a regular flu. A fine fellow Freeper pointed out that Asians have more ACE-2 receptors, which is what makes it worse for them.
Does this explain their yellow hue?
“Could it be simply a case of most of the infections to date have been in Asia - where mostly Asians live?”
I’ve been to Asia, and by gosh, you’re right! There are mostly Asians there. And needless to say, if the bug got a 3 month head start in Asia, then there will probably be more Asians infected, as the rest of the world tries to catch up. Additionally, the rest of the world will have some idea of what’s coming and will at least have the opportunity to take steps to minimize/mitigate its effects.
Not necessarily true that Asians are more susceptible. It broke out in china so more cases there but look at Iran, Italy and South Korea. It seems to be spreading fast in those areas too.
I don’t believe that low number. The reports of whole families dying run counter.
So why are we hearing reports of 1,200 a day being cremated if no one is dying of this crap?
Because it’s an imaginary plot to destabilize Trump.
Nothing more.
(do I have to add the sarcasm tag?)
What is the secret?! This should be open and transparent.
That could also be a factor in Italy and Iran. In the latter case, the popularity of hookah lounges could be a factor in the raid spread of the disease.
D’oh! Raid = rapid.
That one was out early and was not substantiated with real data at any point as far as I know. But even so, the best case numbers - 51% for Toscani in Italia compared to 92% for Japanese in Tokyo does not indicate this is limited to Asians. And some of those items are peculiarly specific (Gujarati Indian from Houston, Texas?) suggesting this is not really relevant and definitely not comprehensive.
Do you remember 4th grade math? Averages don’t work like that.
That may be related to Keratin levels, which are also higher in Asians, owing to their thicker hair.
What do we really know about the true denominator— the number of cases? Deaths are a known entity that almost always gets recorded. But how many people got a mild case and recovered without ever seeing a doctor, thinking they had a bad cold, not wanting to pay a doctor bill, fearing quarantine, etc.?
