COVID-19 is going exponential, expect millions to die in the next 6 months.

There are 5 million severe cases of the flu every year and without treatment majority of them would die.

it's always been exponential, it can't be anything but exponential.

wow anon really insightful stuff
I mean it’s lucky we have people like you to react quickly and plan ahead. Gee, who would’ve thought a little flu would turn into a pandemic virus. I mean, no one could have predicted this. Two month ago? Fuck off, I only started seeing this in the press a few days ago.

It's a logistic curve, so once the population of infectable people starts saturating it will look linear then logarithmic. But yea, it's been exponential...

>> No.17870185

It actually is the flu though.

More people die from the flu proportionally than this plague alpha test from china.

Just because it has high spreadability does not mean it is bad. How the fuck do people not understand this?

Many in my hometown have it and all they do is cough and have a bit of a sore throat.

Unless you're a skinny, frail, weak, pale basement dwelling turbo virgin, a maggot child, or a human expense (otherwise called 'old person') it's fucking nothing.

It’s not even high. Measles is at least five times more contagious. SARS-CoV-2 can hardly aerosolize itself.

ay dipshit, literally everyone knows that
i know corona won't kill me. it won't kill my girlfriend. it won't kill my bestfriends. hell, if any of us get it, the effects might be so light we won't even notice. but there are people, like parents and friends' parents, my bestfriend's bedridden SO, that this could kill or at least seriously hurt.
believe it or not, most people have people they care about and love. that's who we're worried about. not ourselves.

>More people die from the flu proportionally than this plague alpha test from china.
are you saying proportionally to the human population? because that's kinda a useless proportion, you could've just said in terms of total numbers, that would've made more sense.
if you mean more people die from the flue in proportion to those who have it, that's just false.

Again, wrong. And they haven't been able to test everyone, obviously, despite their amazing efforts, so the death rate is going to definitely end up being even lower.

Also, there's no official treatment for this virus. It's new, and everything needs proper testing before it can be widely used against it, be it a vaccine or something else.

It worse than the flu, but we aren’t doomed. The hit to the markets is bad, but it'll bounce back when a timeline is put on the virus. It just boring now.
