reading the previous article, it only meantions that it is more transmittable from covid but otherwise theres no significant differences so we can probably assume that it has the same mortality rate as the previous covid. Perhaps even a bit higher due to its faster infection-rate.
chinaās numbers are also so blatantly wrong its crazy
frankly lots of the reporting/numbers on the virus are bullshit, I just want facts
its china what did you expect

I always find it funny that people justify carelessness by saying young people arenāt at risk of dying from it. Sure MAYBE you arenāt at risk of dying (which isnāt a guarantee, you could end up being one of the unlucky ones who DOES), but your quality of life will most likely be affected. How does struggling to breathe, losing your sense of taste/smell, and being completely sapped of strength sound?
Now letās say you donāt have it so bad and maybe are even asymptomatic. You can still SPREAD IT TO OTHERS. All of a sudden your parents or loved ones or somebody you walked past might have it too and they might not end up as fortunate as you. That is basically one of the biggest concerns with this virus, anybody with COVID is basically a walking biologically hazard to everyone. Thatās why thereās social distancing and wearing masks, to PREVENT the spread to other people.
And then of course thereās the people saying it has a low death rate. Sure, ignoring lasting effects, a majority of people are able to survival. But thatās with ALL of the precautions that have been taken (social distancing, remote work/school, masks, etc.), which prevents hospitals from being overloaded. Letās say we decide āwhatever, the virus isnāt killing that many so letās just return to normal life.ā Of course a TON more people are going to get it, which will lead to hospitals being unable to handle the number of cases. And because of that, the death toll will SKYROCKET from a lack of available care and treatment.
I sure hope these mentalities arenāt representative of the general public, otherwise this virus is here to stay for a long time.
