(OP) User ID: 77811834 United States 01/27/2020 09:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Flu deaths worldwide Quoting: -Noahsdad- According to the World Health Organization (WHO), flu globally attacks 5%–10% adults and 20%–30% children annually. Hospitalizations and flu season deaths occur mainly among the high-risk groups such as young children below the age of 5 years, the elderly above the age of 65 years, and those with chronic medical illnesses. About 3 to 5 million cases of severe flu illness and about 250 000 to 500,000 flu season deaths worldwide occur due to the influenza virus. [link to healthvigil.com (secure)] Please tell this to the Chinese government, who have locked down 10s of millions of people and stopped work and school in their capital, turning Beijing into a ghost town. Go up to Xi and let him know, that the Flu kills more people and to relax. Must be nothing wrong, the government tells me so.. move along, nothing to see here or worry about... Grow a brain OP.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 78401122 01/27/2020 09:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | OP...........most people do not die from the flu per se......it is not in the best interest of a virus to kill off its host. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 71635907 People generally die from pneumonia.......but you will not hear this too much from the media. Those with an undeveloped or weakened immune system will have a poor immune response to the virus. Their own immune system will then damage lung tissue..........which results in the lungs filling up with fluid.......hence, pneumonia. Then.......they eventually suffocate on the fluid. Hence it is their own immune system which kills them.......not the flu bug. I agree And most that die are under the age of 5 and over the age of 65 And folks don’t know how to survive pneumonia..... I have had bronchitis over 50 times in my life and pneumonia over 20..... Only hospitalized twice at four and five.... I learned how to breathe while drooling mucous on to my pillow.... gross but it has saved my life. And controlling the cough prevents lung scary. And exercise.....not while sick, but cardio and yoga to keep lung function high. I still have oxygen saturation above 95% even during as asthma attack. Sedentary lifestyle is going to be the true killer. Our lungs need excercise. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 78222504 United States 01/27/2020 10:15 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | People are panicking because of Bendford's law of controversy. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77441923 "Passion is inversely proportional to the amount of real information available." The info is limited therefore full on panic mode. We are only half impassioned now on average. Right where we should be based on the very strange and evident behaviour of the Chinese authorities. Only the very passionate think we are now witnessing a very slow start WWWIII. |
SocialEnigma User ID: 77719481 Canada 01/27/2020 10:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Because it's a new mutation with no vaccine available. It is contagious without signs and symptoms. There's major lockdown going on in China and it seems to be spreading at a fairly rapid rate. It's survivable but it is killing both healthy and unhealthy, mostly the unhealthy. I'm hoping that it's all overblown. But we're due for another "Spanish flu" |

Here is what our local health care workers said March 11th about the pandemic on our local news radio (KIRO). “Where all the patients? What we’re seeing on the television and the media is creating this widespread panic and fear, but here we are in the hospitals and the intensive care units are not filling up with patients,” [link to mynorthwest.com (secure)] |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 75686950 United States 03/13/2020 09:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It’s because of the potential, which, if you believe it is a SARS variant, then google the known epidemiological data on the SARS outbreak. It killed 9.6% it infected. We do not have an infection metric yet for this, but its R0 contagion metric is 6x the flu. Don’t compare measles with smallpox, pneumonia with malaria, or flu with SARs-cov-2. Different pathologies. “Fake news” will be the customary response to the above. |

User ID: 71860689 United States 03/13/2020 10:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Because unlike other flu/ cold virus, when you heal you heal. This one of your lung incapacity if you survive the infection is compromised by severe scaring by 20 to 50% for the rest of your life. That alone would cripple a would economy, when a good portion of the population can't work or can perform only limited work for the rest of their lives. We get pissed with 24% on the pollution on some sort of government assistance. I don't think those that can work will be happy or able to support the another 50 to 70% of the population if this virus got far in the USA. |
