Looking at the numbers further, out of Wuhan's 2,714 cases they have had 100 deaths, and currently 563 cases are serious and 127 critical. That's 3.68% dead, 20.74% serious, 4.68% critical.

Friends, at work today I overheard that not only is this virus most certainly engineered by the government, but that the newly-created Space Force holds the patent to it.

This is from the same guy two cubicles down from me that also thinks that the Rothschilds started the PG&E wildfires last year so, you know, he definitely has well-connected sources.

I assume critical needs a ventilator given the main killing symptom is pneumonia. So, if the numbers get out of control like it seems they will, all those poor folks will die because there won't be enough ventilators to go around.

A quick google search says 10-25% of the population gets the flu each year.

Using the Wuhan numbers I quoted earlier as a base (3.68% dead, 20.74% serious, 4.68% critical)

If 10% get sick that's 27,600,000 dead world wide, 35,100,000 critical and 155,550,000 serious.
If 15% get sick that's 41,400,00 dead world wide, 52,650,000 critical and 233,325,000 serious
If 20% get sick that's 55,200,000‬ dead world wide, 70,200,000 critical and 311,100,000‬ serious.
If 25% get sick that's 69,000,000 dead world wide, 87,750,000 critical and 388,875,000‬ serious.

Obviously hospitals would be overwhelmed by these numbers and if critical cases necessitates a respirator or ventilator nearly all of them would die since there aren't nearly enough.

TeenageArchipelago

Please stop taking the number who have died and dividing it by the current number of known cases to try and get a mortality rate. The only way you can calculate a mortality rate is by dividing the number who died by the number of people who are no longer sick (either because they are dead or they got better). Because we won't know the number who were sick but are now better but never went to a hospital, it's going to take a while before we can even vaguely get an idea about the mortality rate, we just have to wait until diagnosis rates go up to a high enough percentage of the people sick, then we can actually see how many of them die

if, like me, you're feeling freaked out by this talk of "preventing the spread" and "finding a vaccine", i would like to share this by dr dolan. i hope it brings you the same comfort it brought me (swap out nukes for "allowing the virus to spread"):

quote:

Life on earth hit its peak during the Ice Ages, and we are now killing off the few species from that period who survived our first coup, ten thousand years ago...The lives of all the horrible humans in Houston are not worth even one Columbia Mammoth.

We have guides sent ahead of us into oblivion. When we pull the plug, press the button, drop the nuclear dime on ourselves, we will suffer no more than the Mammoth suffers. We owe them; let’s join them. We can make our first act in the afterlife a formal apology to the Tasmanian Wolf, the Cave Bear, the Mammoth.

But at least their suffering is over now. The Mammoths’ suffering ended when the last calf, watching its mother being hacked to death by ugly apes wearing caribou skins, trumpeted in shock and pain and tried to run — and was hacked to death, screaming, then silent. And when its life went out — the blowing out of a candle — the suffering of all Mammoths ceased, gave way to something entirely different: Nirvana. The Nirvana of the Mammoths, where they wait for us now.

[...]


Imagine a prisoner condemned to be tortured to death, huddling in a cell waiting for the next call to the bloody floor where his teeth are extracted, one by one. One day someone slips a knife under the door of his cell. For the first time, he has the option of ending a life of pain. And, like a true slave, he throws the knife away in horror, hands it over to the guards so that he may continue to be dragged out and tortured at their pleasure.

there's like a lot of things to be concerned about right now

we basically have a significantly less dangerous version of SARS in the absolute (i.e. outcomes are better in those who get it) but its significantly more contagious and will likely have significantly more cases when everything is said and done.

What I would really, really caution people about right now is taking the reported number as absolute. Reported cases are those that have been tested and confirmed in a laboratory. They are going to hedge towards the cases that are serious enough to be prone to hospitalization. There are likely significant observed community cases that will not be reported because the people are asymptomatic. Coronaviruses, as a rule, are more dangerous the older you get. One of the postulations good virologists throw around is that we're seeing them more and more because the population of the world is getting older. The deaths in 2019-nCoV from the literature we have all hedge towards being older and immune compromised.

Basically: there are a lot of people who are getting the virus who aren't getting sick. The total mortality isn't known, and right now its tracking towards CAP. While that's real bad, it's not "end planet earth" bad. Likely if you're under 40 and in decent shape, even if you get this it won't be worse than a normal run-in with the flu.
