On that cruise ship, 8 deaths out of 634 confirmed cases would be 1.3%. Correct? Your point is that most of those people were older. But, even based on the CDC’s inflated numbers for the flu, the flu death rate for age 65+ is currently 170.3 out of 100,000, which would be less than 0.2%. Correct? You can check my numbers here:

As we can see happening in Italy, there are not enough supplies to meet the demand, so now, in Italy, people age 60+ can’t even be treated, which is driving the death rate even higher.

But national health care, in which the most vulnerable are most likely to be murdered (if in the womb) or abandoned, is the answer.

Correction to my own post:

Actually, that is not correct. That is the HOSPITALIZATION rate, not the death rate which must be even lower!!!!
