But, but...we’re not yet at yearly, seasonal flu levels, yet...so, no reason for him to by mad about *those* numbers.

I think you’re right on point. We’re not doing enough to control the flow of people from heavily infected regions.
Time to get tough with the bureaucrats and their parochial infighting.
It's not even as serious as the flu. It's basically a common cold, with milder symptoms. Just take an aspirin and use some nosespray, you'll be fine.
So the average age mortality for corona is 80, the Fox host said. So this virus is impacting people with compromised immune systems, underlying other medical conditions are the most vulnerable. What about the other 99 percent? If people got the virus, worst-case scenario, how dangerous is it to them, compared maybe to the regular flu?
Sean, to make sure your viewers get an accurate idea about what goes on, you mentioned seasonal flu, he continued. The mortality for seasonal flu is 0.1 [percent]. The mortality for this is about two, two-and-a-half percent. Its probably lower than that, its probably closer to one. But even if its one, its 10 times more lethal than the seasonal flu. You gotta make sure that people understand that!
stop...
I’m sure this president has told them to do better. Doesn’t mean they will, but, he is all about raising expectations of folks like this.
Do you have links to confirmation that the majority of deaths in Italy and Iran are Chinese and/or Asian? Would appreciate any proof you have of this. TIA.
Plus in this case he’s calling them back from a democrat controlled hearing.
IT IS THE F’N FLU!!!
thanks.
not sure how accurate wiki is. Says closely related to SARS. So it seems not quite new. like most, a new strain maybe ?
Interesting reads here:

and that points to here:

“Anyone expecting a vaccine available for us to take in “weeks, if at most months” is going to be sorely disappointed.”
Fauci is not the only virus-vaccine expert in the world.
This has not been happening. People are walking right through customs.
My understanding was they are screened before boarding.
Id be more comfortable if the were screened on departure too.
The Deep State and the media have succeeded in causing mass hysteria and panic in this country. Make no mistake they are politicizing this event to the max! Absolutely disgusting and disgraceful!
I'll buy you tickets to Wuhan or Qom if you want.
Could it be that the well known environmental problems in China (i.e., air pollution) are a factor in terms of contributing to latent respiratory system issues in its citizens? I am not a scientist and never worked in health care but just wondering if there is a possible connection between the severity of the outbreak in China and pollution levels there?
Right, “in the elderly it kills”. Well so does the common flu kill the elderly min the vast majority of cases..
Dead is dead.
About 20,000 in this country already DEAD from this seasons flu and not a word about it.
Entirely manufactured panic!
“It’s not even as serious as the flu. It’s basically a common cold, with milder symptoms. Just take an aspirin and use some nosespray, you’ll be fine.”
You mentioned the other day on a post you are an overweight diabetic. You are right at the top for dying from this because of diabetes. A nose spray will not help you.
If he doesn't declare martial law, then the msm will scream that he's not doing enough. If he does, the msm will scream that it's not an emergency.
