That is 0.00005% of the world's population.

This is infections, not deaths.

Most epidemiologists agree that there are between 10 and 40 more cases for each confirmed positive, depending on the country.

Honestly, seems as though a large portion of people do. Not sure why there is still a certain subset of people mocking this thing.

I'm not doubting this is true, there are a legion of people with this that have no symptoms at all, do you have a source for that?

And you think it’s going to stop there?

Of course the numbers are small... it hasn’t been going that long.

This like someone watching a house fire and saying, "No need for the fire department! My house is only 10% burned up! Nothing to see here! No reason at all to think this will go any further."

Living in reality and addressing problems is actually much less scary than pretending they don't exist.

I hear there are no Coronavirus cases in North Korea. We should copy what they are doing.

This virus has confirmed to me that many, many people are very short sighted.
