Cruise ship passengers tend to be elderly statistically, and elderly people have a higher chance of death from the flu.

STOP PANICKING.
Even at that, the mortality rate is higher than what the flu has, even for elderly. The death rate of those aged over 65 with the flu is 0.84%, that figure is a lot higher with covid.
No it isn't. It is 1-2%. Not "a lot higher".
It's in the same family as the common cold.
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaay more people die of the common flu than this bioweapon virus.
