So why are these hardened, professional journalists having a problem understanding what 99% means!
FACTs FACTS from this web site:Coronavirus Update (Live): 11,712,852 Cases and 539,768 Deaths from COVID-19 Virus Pandemic - Worldometer

NOTE in the USA figures...

But why is David Muir, etc. just realizing this and don't believe IT??? I've been trying to get people to comprehend this really unpublicized FACT

How deadly is the coronavirus?
