I mentioned earlier I came back from the UK almost 2 weeks ago and have been keeping up with their progress as well, which may be valuable since they are testing a larger swath of people:
29,000 tested.
590 positive
96% mild
4% Serious
10 fatalities
18 recovered
Also currently on an exponential climb in positive cases.

I love it, but as long as the ignorant unwashed masses are scared and scooping up TP and hand sanitizer, we've got a problem. The herd is spooked and they're dragging us into the dirt with them. I don't know how long it takes to get this economic train moving in the right direction, but we're facing a years long set back on fear alone. The economy is a china doll(no pun intended) in the hands of an ADD 2 year old.

That doesn't even come close to justifying the reaction this virus is currently getting.

Kork, Dr. Fauci and other experts/orgs believe it to be around 1% death rate
What are the latest figures on the diamond princess? 1% mortality rate in a population that skews old?
I think 1% is a high estimate, possibly very high.

I think there still a percent or 2 worth of Princess Diamond cases that are still not on the path to recovery and still taking up hospital and ICU beds a month later - so a final fatality rate is not known.
On the flip side, if it can be assumed that everyone on board had at least a passing exposure to the virus, the fact that “only” about 20% of them ever caught it may be taken as a positive.

I guess you shouldn't
Maybe tip off Italy so that they can stop committing economic suicide to try and stop the spread.

Big facts my dude

Might wanna start vetting these “facts” before you post them. Apparently the girl who took these notes did not describe them accurately.
Here is the twitter feed.

You stated
I don’t think you understand the difference between “facts” and extrapolation. Sure these number are possible, but when you throw out statements that 40-70% WILL get it, and 1.6 million of us WILL die, you are spreading fear, not facts.

I guess the definition of facts has changed... those aren’t facts

those statements are in the article my guy
they literally say "will get it". I'm not spreading anything but the expert panel document while you believe everything @joshua say on Twitter. hmm

While it’s an expert opinion, it’s still an opinion. They don’t know how many people will ultimately be affected. But whatever makes you feel better(or worse in you’re case).
BTW while you are quoting the article directly you said 1.6 million will die, which is not what the article said.
