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.

It’s actually kind of funny. I feel like we’re going to have the boy who cried wolf scenarios. The overreaction was so bad here, people will soon be put on blast. If some actual pandemic comes through in the not to distance future, politicians won’t do enough in fear of another COVID-19 over reaction.
