So we routinely lose between 500,000 and 4 million Americans to the seasonal flu each year? Because that's what we're facing with this novel Coronavirus, if the R-0 and kill rate information we have is accurate.
We are facing something equivalent to the Spanish Flu of 1918-1919. That killed 500,000 Americans in about six months. We are trying to avoid that happening now. This is the centennial plague that has routinely rocked Eurasia, and now mankind, throughout history.
Explain to me why sustaining WWII-level casualties in 6 months is not worth taking steps to mitigate?
500,000 people died of the flu this year worldwide.
The goal is to make sure it isn't 500,000 Americans dead of CoV-2 in the next 6 months.
