9 deaths out of 211 reported cases (some of which are not recovered yet and may result in more deaths), from the very head article itself, comes close to this. Quibble and call it 4% if you want but it does not change the concern materially.
I guess you aren't aware of the fact that a very tiny percentage of the people who contract the disease ever become ill enough to go to the doctor. The vast majority either have no symptoms or pass whatever symptoms they do have off as a cold or flu.
So your nine deaths are not out of 211 people, but thousands and thousands of people.
