Thanks, Steven W.

The bottom line of the CDC study is: In the most probable scenario, 0.4% of symptomatic Chinavirus patients will die. (In other words, a 1 in 250 chance overall, if you contract the illness and have symptoms, but VERY skewed to those over 65)

That is about 4 times the rate of the flu, but totally undermines the justification of the Panic.

Incidentally, the CDC analysis does take into account asymptomatic "Carriers" of the Chinavirus bug, but does not project overall incidence of either symptomatic or asymptomatic infectees in the overall population--leaving this level of analysis to model builders.

We'll keep keeping tabs on them.
