I agree. Let's start with some hard facts.
- There are lots of models that estimate the H1N1 numbers were many times higher than the confirmed deaths. I'm guessing you could say the same for Covid-19 when all is said and done, using the similar estimates and models. https://abcnews.go.com/Health/swine-...ry?id=16646281
- Most references put the number of confirmed H1N1 deaths at ~18,500
- The number of confirmed Covid-19 fatal cases is now over 51,000, and we're only beginning.
So, if we just stick with the actual, confirmed cases, do you still think the comparisons are valid? |
Your facts are wrong. The number of deaths worldwide for H1N1 is 151,700 to 575,400. The number infected is 700,000,000 to 1,400,000,000. Get your facts straight! To date, the raw numbers of the Chinese coronavirus do not come close to H1N1.
Is anyone worried about 10,000,000 filing for unemployment in two short weeks? This amount is unprecedented. And, unfortunately, it's the tip of the iceberg.
