The controversial Ethiopian politician and Director General of the World Health Organization (WHO), Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, claimed in a press conference in early March that the fatality rate for the coronavirus was many multiples that of the fatality rate of the common flu.

This egregiously false premise has led to the greatest panic in world history.

    Yeah you're wrong on this, it is significantly more deadly than the flu. And even if this analysis is correct, it's significantly more contagious than the flu, which will make it more deadly.

    If you read the link, the death rate of confirmed flu cases is 10%. The death rate of confirmed Covid-19 cases is 3.4%. The flu death rate only drops to 0.1% once they factor in the estimated number of total flu cases (the ones that went unreported). Currently, they’re not factoring in/estimating the unreported Covid-19 cases, so it remains a death rate of confirmed cases. But, apples to apples the flu is three times deadlier. LIPO.

    It may be more spreadable than the flu. But it certainly isn't more deadly. Hardly anyone has been tested. So you can figure we have 2 to 3 times the real cases of those infected than what are being reported. But yet we still only have 90 deaths nationwide. So considering that, the overall death rate is less than 1%, even with 10,000 cases.

    But this is assuming nobody else who has it is going to die.

    And your evidence is what?

    It is not me that you should characterize as wrong it is the CDC and others. I am just reporting what they are saying. So maybe you should get your facts straight.

    You are not at all reporting what the CDC is saying. The CDC has been completely clear this is significantly worse than the flu.

    IMO logically the flu is not only more deadly but more widespread each year than Coronavirus.

    How many of you have had the flu. How many times have you had it. How many people do you know that actually have the flu every year. Now ask yourselves the same damn questions about Coronavirus FFS.
