Article is full of subjunctives: could...if...would. Fear and anxiety are running amok. Just like Dr Fauci saying Covid-19 is 10 times as lethal as the flu. There is absolutely no way to know that, because the data to draw that conclusion simply does not exist. Flu is not a reportable illness, so no one can know how many total cases there are. It is also believed that 80% of people ill with Covid-19 have mild symptoms. Even that is a guess, but if you have mild symptoms - maybe a short-lived fever or aches - are you going to go to your doctor or a hospital? Probably not. But no one knows! Unless Dr Fauci has much more concrete data that can be used to “show his work,” he is helping to stoke fear and anxiety needlessly. He is undoubtedly correct on other things - but not on the fatality rate.
The fatality rate is going to go up some when you run out of medical students to bag people who can’t get ventilators.
