Real question is what % of that 2% really died of COVID 19
It seems that every death from every accident, from cancer, from heart attacks, from car accidents are really caused by the virus. That would make it better for the election in November.

.02 of a family of five equals?
Depends on the age and risk factors. The OP made a general statement about it only being a 2% morbidity rate.
We're not all millennials here.

Don’t move the goal posts you said:

How would you feel if you had a family of 5 and somebody said that there was a 10% chance that a person in your family would die if you did x? Would you still do x?
Which is irrelevant and a straw man argument.

Using actual statistics and numerical probability is irrelevant and a straw man argument? ok, there's not much else for you to say, then.

You mean mortality rate Einstein.
Since we aren't systematically testing asymptomatic cases, the morbidity rate is close to 100% of confirmed cases.

what part of math do you not understand? That equals an overall mortality rate of exactly 2%.

If the same number of people who got the flu last year get COVID-19, at 2% Mortality rate that’s 380,000 US deaths from the virus in one year.
So it's not as contagious as the flu,or are you claiming we will have at least 380,000 deaths from Bat Eaters?

That ONE member of my family of 5 had a 10% chance of catching a disease? I’d take those odds.
You can make statistics and models mean anything.
Those 10% odds are pretty fricking good between 5 people, jackass.

That's a 10% chance of dying. Not of catching a disease.

Wuhan / king flu is just the flavor of the month

You’re making my case for me...

Edited just for you!

Is 2% not a big enough number for you?

You're right, we should also ban all vehicular travel because people are dying

That may be as high as 55-66%.

There may be something to that. But had we not changed our daily behavior, that 2% would be 4% to 5%.

The CFR doesn’t depend on social distancing. The virologists will tell you that unless you’re social distancing until there’s a vaccine that it doesn’t even change the percent infected.
Let that sink in. (You’re being sold a pig in a poke.)
