Re: Coronavirus (non political)

Its deadlier than the flu

It is forecasted to infect a much higher percent of the population than the flu
Its infection rate (RO) is probably 2x that of the flu

In short, its like the flu in that causes respiratory illness, but is deadlier, spreads easier and faster and is forecasted to infect 50% vs 8% of us.

Like the flu on steroids.

Oh ... and we dont know much of anything about it.

Lastly ... we arent prepared with medical equipment or facilities for half the country to get the "flu on steroids".

Lastly lastly .. we dont have any built up immunity to this strain like the common flu.

Ps -- also we dont have a vaccine for it .. like we do with the common flu.
