It sounds possible that the true origin of the outbreak may be in some country that is so impoverished that it's normal to die in your forties from heart hookworm or something, and they haven't noticed one more blight because they already have so many of them

Ok, seriously now, is there a source for this? Because those percentages look way too high.

Looks like the table was from the MERS coronavirus not this more recent version.


Here's one of the few tables I was able to find online from when the confirmed infection count was 44000:

nah its definitely from china, or it would have been discovered in travelers in the rest of the world with no connection to China long before this. this just means that the disease has been spreading in Iran undetected for awhile, but Iran and China have a pretty close economic relationship so probably some business traveler from Wuhan a few weeks ago started it.

To summarize:

Between 10 and 40: Not a lot to worry about
Under 10 or between 40-50: Percentage of death high enough for concern
Over 50: Fuuuuuuuuuuuuucked

5-8% chance of death not a lot to worry about

(Also not COVID in case anyone sees this and starts freaking out)

Plus the disease had a whole month to spread (dec time frame) before alarms got thrown in China thanks to Chinese cover-ups and persecuting doctors who noticed something off.

Hubei also had around ~5 million visitors enter and leave due to Chinese new year celebration before the novel coronavirus became public.

I really think a lot of people are underestimating how much this is going to gently caress the economy. Like if you have a retirement plan I would highly suggest moving into an ultra conservative investment plan ASAP and watch for a few months.

The worst that happens is you don’t make that 6% for 3 months but if the economy takes a huge poo poo you’ll be more reasonably safe vs doing nothing at all.
