“THE BEST ESTIMATES NOW OF THE OVERALL MORTALITY RATE FOR COVID-19 IS SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 0.1% AND 1%. THAT’S LOWER THAN YOU HEARD PROBABLY IN MANY REPORTS … IT’S NOT LIKELY IN THE RANGE OF 2 TO 3%.”

[tatown]

Like many of us have been saying...the mortality rate will be very similar to the flu once the mild & asymptomatic cases are factored in. Nothing surprising here.

[pgyanke]

Wait... wasn’t Trump just castigated for saying this?

[Professional]

EVERYONE is gonna die!!!! 100%!!!

Nobody is safe, watch MORE tv, click on more links, it’s your only chance to survive longer.

[tatown]

Yes...Trump is castigated for just breathing.

[dinodino]

What’s the HHS Secretary’s source data underlying this statement? It doesn’t match what other countries are saying.

[Ken H]

Just when we’ve got a nice panic underway, this guy has to spoil it.

[SkyDancer]

Anti-Trump media hype. Folks are still flying, have a plane load every time.

“...this message brought to you by...”

They’re all trying to cash in on this. Local news? CORONA!!!
National news? CORONA!!! Business channel? CORONA!!! Sports channels? CORONA!!!

I hope they all burn in hell for this one.

The current truth across the world, according to John Hopkins:

3.39% death rate from total infections

Sounds about right.

In Washington State there have been 12 Coronavirus deaths and somewhere between 1,200 and 12,000 infected.

The current death rate vs cure rate is (John Hopkins):

6.12%

[tatown]

Garbage data because mild/asymptomatic cases ARE NOT INCLUDED.

[brownsfan]

Muh, muh, muh my corona!

[Professional]

But it’s for a good cause!! Bring down Orange Man Bad, create panic, create recession.... blame...

[ConservativeMind]

That same thing is true of all flu cases.

We have to rely on the official numbers.

All else is pulled from your butt.

[wildcard_redneck]

I hate to say it but the death rate is always higher in the “rest” of the world due to shit medical care, lack of sanitation, and shrine-licking.

[goldstategop]

We’re all gonna in ten years! Human misanthropes are sadly disappointed the human race isn’t headed for extinction... yet.

[FroggyTheGremlim]

Democrats believe that passing a law outlawing firearms will make us all safe from crimes committed with guns.

Therefore, I propose that Democrats in Congress pass a law outlawing the Corona Virus. That will make us all safe from sickness caused by the virus.

You are free to believe what you like. If you want to cling to 3% or 6% mortality, knock yourself out. Our scientists are the world’s leading experts in virology and epidemiology but you can chose to come up with your own numbers if you feel like you have a better handle on it.
