I love it when people make claims with absolutely no evidence to back them up.

What she's saying makes absolutely no sense, because if there were any significant number of people in this country with the Chinese Virus in November/December, some of them would have developed severe symptoms and been hospitalized, and that most definitely would have been detected by the CDC.

Maybe, but most doctors probably attribute it to the flu.

Like the flu, you dont really die from the coronavirus. You die from something that the virus causes such as pneumonia.

If someone came in with flu like symptoms but tested negative and died from a flu-like complication, then they probably just attributed it to the flu.

I'm not sure if the CDC keeps records, but it would be interesting to know how many people died from a flu-like complication but tested negative for the flu.

I went to the doc late December with what I thought was the flu. I tested negative but was given a script for Tamiflu and told that it was probably a false negative. She said that it has happened quite a bit this year. Tamiflu didnt really help at all. Not saying it was the coronavirus, but it was the worst flu-like bug I've ever had.

My granddad caught something that the doctor just called a "Viral chest infection" and was sick for a long time. In fact my whole family got it.

How would the CDC know what it was or even have it on it's radar. I've seen multiple accounts from physicians on twitter saying they've been treating these exact symptoms in elderly since Dec of 2019
