Over the last year I've read at least half a dozen studies that opined this and that the fatality rate was about the same as the flu but far worse for the elderly and obese and far lower for everyone else.  I had mild cold symptoms in January 2019 that I have long suspected was the Wuhan virus as I've not been infected since then.  But I refuse to get tested.  If I get another cold I'll just work from home for 10 days.  This has been panic porn by the media from the beginning to harm Trump and given the way they do the PCR test, at least until January 6th, a large percentage of the oridinary flu and cold cases were called the virus which is why both numbers magically went down by 90% while the virus cases soared. 

Cue the scientific illiterates:

Me:  How come ordinary flu and cold cases were down 90% over the last year?

Illiterate:  It's because of the shutdowns, social distancing and masks!

Me:  Then why did we have a spike in ChiCom virus cases at the same time?

Illiterate:  It's because people weren't obeying the shutdowns, social distancing and mask wearing!

Me:  That makes absolutely no sense.

Illiterate:  Science denier!  Believe the government and the experts!

Me:  You mean the ones that have been consistently wrong?

Illiterate:  @#*&!*#&@%# you!

That is the sorry state of education these days.......and I am still seeing morons walking or driving by themselves wearing masks.  Every single day.  They are literally that obtuse.
