According to my Mother
And to be clear here - I don’t know how recent her information is: But as far as she can tell the deathrate for the Coronavirus is 2%.
It’s lower than Bird Flu
It’s lower than Swine Flu
It’s lower than Spanish Flu
The death rate is LOWER THAN NORMAL FLU that crops up every year.
In short - My mother would really appreciate the internet cease its panicking because as far as she’s concerned y’all overreacting af. Which leads to politicans overreacting so that they look like they’re “doing something” in a “crisis” that will help them in the eyes of their voters - and for we know could make it worse because you’re just going to send every hypocondriac to the hospital which puts a lot of people into one, already overworked/overpopulated, place where there is a plethora of other infectious diseases which will just lead to outbreak and increase people’s chances of actually being infected with this virus as well as others.
