Hence quarantining 2 or 3000 people on a cruise ship, like they did recently, is an heresy. It is a perfect environment for after 2 weeks everybody being infected.

Now that Worldmeter has broken out the stats for the Diamond Princess floating petri dish we will be able to see just how lethal the virus is when those infected have access to decent medical care, and a healthcare system that isn't overwhelmed by tens of thousands of infected. Of the approx 3,700 passengers, the infected count stands at 621. That's a 16.8% infection rate. It's no surprise that number is as high as it is considering the environment they were living in invited mass infections. Sadly, I expect there will be some deaths, but it is somewhat encouraging that 19 days after the first report of an infected passenger the death toll currently stands at zero. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately that's now changed - 2 elderly Japanese with underlying health conditions have succumbed.

Steelers4Life Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Meanwhile, 600,000 people will die world-wide from influenza this year. The coronavirus is more of a hypevirus with only 2,000 deaths. I am surprised that so many are getting sucked into this sensationalized vacuum.

The coronavirus is more of a hypevirus with only 2,000 deaths. I am surprised that so many are getting sucked into this sensationalized vacuum. Agreed about this being way too sensationalized. China has a death rate of around 31,500 per day, all reason combined. So, since the beginning of the Corona drama 60 days ago, about 2,000,000 people have died for reasons like age, health or accidents. Corona has added during that period 2,000 deaths. This is a 0,1 % increase.... Is that really worth the hype and the panic ? Now, that it need to be monitored and handled is sure, but creating a worldwide panic and putting the whole economy in lockdown ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something will have to change at some point if the human race is going to survive.” But you know what ? I don't give a shit ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
