That’s nothing. Try this:
2019-2020 US flu season statistics (so far):
29,000,000/280,000/16,000/200
Cases/hospitalized/deaths/children deaths
Another way to look at it is...
They have the flu in Korea as well, just like the US.
You state statistics from the US for an entire year. The cases in Korea started two weeks ago.
Imagine all of these new cases are landing on top of the existing flu cases.
That is the problem. This will overwhelm any local system.
It’s not about getting sick or dying. It’s about systems.
