I’m a bookie. Says right on my name and I said as much. Other medical professionals, doing work researching this virus, have said the same. Others who are actually in the medical field, as was written. Do you think the death rate will be just as high in the US as has been reported in China? If not, what are we even arguing here? Is this guy a receptionist? Does he not have a clear structured grasp of his field? Straight from Anthony Fauci
“On the basis of a case definition requiring a diagnosis of pneumonia, the currently reported case fatality rate is approximately 2%.

5 report mortality of 1.4% among 1099 patients with laboratory-confirmed Covid-19; these patients had a wide spectrum of disease severity. If one assumes that the number of asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic cases is several times as high as the number of reported cases, the case fatality rate may be considerably less than 1%. This suggests that the overall clinical consequences of Covid-19 may ultimately be more akin to those of a severe seasonal influenza (which has a case fatality rate of approximately 0.1%) or a pandemic influenza (similar to those in 1957 and 1968) rather than a disease similar to SARS or MERS, which have had case fatality rates of 9 to 10% and 36%, respectively.

Who knows more about viral epidemics. “Tenet” on the Coli.com, or Anthony Fauci and his team that published that report?
