Do math much? You're off by a factor of a few hundred.

Wrong calculation.
Divide deaths by recoveries.
Those currently infected haven’t resolved into either yet, so can’t be counted for fatality rate.

Today’s rate is 8.45% terminal (2,810 dead, 33,243 recovered).
For something spreading at least as fast as flu, that’s pretty fing serious.

The hyterical crowd will blame bad date on a death rate of 1% - 2% but will fully embrace the same bad data if it suggests a death rate higher than that.

Actual is .01? Where do you get that from?

The real fatality rate is currently around 9%, assuming China’s numbers are close to accurate, which I highly doubt they are. Probably closer to 20-25%.
