People will use this to further whatever they already believed.
But somewhere around .3-.5% has been a pretty common range discussed on this board and elsewhere since the early weeks of this.

quote:Fake news. The early estimates even here were 0.6-1.0%. Most people would point to SK and say that even 0.6% is 6 times deadlier than the flu.
But somewhere around .3-.5%
This is 0.26%. A bad flu season and twice as bad as a regular flu season. Add in how little this impacts kids and the working class, and this will go down as the dumbest worldwide reaction in history.

This is such a dishonest statement for multiple reasons.
First, this estimate is below .3
Second, A TON of opinions were above .5.
Frankly, if you are trying to get the two consensus sides of the argument, .26 is on the crazy low side.
