VIRUS HITTING CLOSE TO HOME

Death statistic as posted a few posts earlier at 5% is misleading as this rate is the death rate per confirmed cases. This years seasonal flu death rate statistic is number of deaths per estimated number of people who got the flu. Big difference. We still don't know how many people have had the corona virus and were not tested to confirm, could be a substantial number which would lower the death rate significantly.
I have heard from scientific studies (conducted over a month ago) that the death toll could be as low as 1.4% same source said Flu was .1% death rate.

Many people get the virus, and are uneffected, with faulty and insufficient testing, the death toll really is lower because we just cannot quantify how many people contract the virus.
