What if it's just another flu strain?

[Fort Fun Indiana]

Now that testing for the Wuhan virus has been expanding, we are finding that many more people have been "infected" (tested positive) than previously opined. As a result, the true morbidity rate may be similar to many other flu strains (~.001). This may mean that all the publicized hysteria has accomplished nothing more than crashing our economy.

Why would anyone want to do that?

Flu strain?

Are you joking? Have you read ANYTHING about ANY of this?

LOL

You are a ******* moron...

I was a paramedic for 19 years as well as a police officer for 26 years and was trained in NBC warfare prior to that. I have MD's that I worked with for many years, whom I trust with my life. What have you got? Rachel madcow from MSDNC OR CNN?

What a bunch of vapid, irrelevant whining. Nobody gives a shit whose ass you wiped. This is new information, and you havent been able to muster any response to it other than your usual hissy fit.

And that is because it just might, in some way?, contradict your cult marching orders. So go cry to someone else.

Unless you have some sort of actual, direct response to the material. Then lets see it, and your level of knowledge on this.

You just stay safe hiding under your pillow, we’ll let you know when it’s safe to come out.

No, you cultish retards wont be letting anyone know anything. Scientists will.

Why would anyone want to do that?

A. You know the flu is a completely different virus, right? One we have vaccines and treatments for?

B. This thing is killing 2,000+ people a day. The flu doesn't even come close to that.

Really? So the Spanish Flu was nothing more than a respiratory bug....damn you lefties are such dumbasses....

This virus is nothing compared to the spanish flu or bubonic plague.

It wouldn't make any difference to if it was.

60 million dead with Spanish flu. Black death had a kill rate of 70 percent. There is a difference.

Every time you try to comment on any scientific topic, a stream of provable lies comes pouring out. Stick to pulling your taffy to trump, you're not informed enough to comment on this stuff.

No, the common flu is not a coronavirus. Even the babyman president has come to terms with this, despite his previous lies.

[Rambunctious]

Its actually more relatable to the cold virus than the flu...and its twice as easy to catch....and I don't care what people want to believe but it is more deadly than the flu....should we have shutdown the economy?...maybe not....but I'm glad no one in my family came down with it....hindsight is 20/20.....if we are guilty of over reacting than 2/3rds of the planet are as well....

What is a coronavirus?
Coronaviruses are members of the coronavirus family of viruses — one of the many families that include viruses able to infect people and animals. Seven members of the coronavirus family can make people ill, one of which is the new coronavirus strain SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19. Certain coronaviruses infect animals, though we do not have evidence that companion animals, including pets, can spread COVID-19. In humans, coronaviruses are a cause of the common cold as well as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), which can be fatal.

From Wikipedia:

Viruses


Coronaviruses are a group of viruses known for causing the common cold. They have a halo or crown-like (corona) appearance when viewed under an electron microscope.

The common cold is a viral infection of the upper respiratory tract. The most commonly implicated virus is a rhinovirus (30–80%), a type of picornavirus with 99 known serotypes.[29][30] Other commonly implicated viruses include human coronaviruses (≈ 15%),[31][32] influenza viruses (10–15%),[33] adenoviruses (5%),[33] human respiratory syncytial virus (orthopneumovirus), enteroviruses other than rhinoviruses, human parainfluenza viruses, and human metapneumovirus.[34] Frequently more than one virus is present.[35] In total, more than 200 viral types are associated with colds."

What are coronaviruses?

Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that are common in both humans and animals that usually cause mild-to-moderate respiratory illnesses. The source of COVID-19 is suspected to be animals in an open air market and is possibly a previously unrecognized bat coronavirus. It appears to cause a more severe illness progressing to pneumonia.

This is a rapidly evolving situation. More is being learned about this new virus every day and updates are available on the CDC website.

What's the difference between this coronavirus (COVID-19) and the flu?

COVID-19 is a new type of coronavirus, emerging late in 2019. Because it is a new virus, public health professionals are still learning more about its transmission, symptoms and severity. To date, the flu is more likely to appear with rapid onset of illness, high fever and prominent headache and body aches. In contrast, COVID-19 may present with slower onset of illness, mild headache and body ache and mild/absent fever.
