“””I’ve seen the 0.7% outside Wuhan/China number several places - which puts it into a Flu range..which is especially ‘rosy” because it’s a strain that nobody has really been encountering.”””

Flu mortality is approx. 1 in 2000 or .05%. Covid-19 at .7% is 14 in 2000. 14 times higher than “flu range”. This is why in areas hit hard, like Wuhan, the mortality rate goes up to 2%-4%. Hospitals and medical supplies are overwhelmed.
