The 12000 deaths in the US is an estimate based on modeling to account for cases where testing was not done. The number of deaths in confirmed cases was 1642. Case mortality rate for covid-19 is 7.7% at the moment and rising. This number will go down as the pandemic winds down, and will probably end up at around 2-3% In china, where the epidemic appears to have subsided for now, the case mortality rate is 4.5%. The case mortality rate for H1N1 was 0.03%. Do those numbers sound even remotely comparable to you? What's your source for "Case mortality rate for covid-19 is 7.7%" ? https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/26/6/20-0320_article "Nevertheless, given the residual uncertainties, health sector decision-makers and disease modelers probably should consider a broad range of 0.25%–3.0% for COVID-19 case-fatality risk estimates.'

What world do you live in? Trump and his league of morons are the reason why the virus was allowed to get a foothold in the U.S. in the first place. Stating that him and his administration have done more to contain to contain the single largest pandemic since the Spanish flu is ridiculous. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/03/14/tracking-trumps-false-or-misleading-coronavirus-claims/ The man is a giagantic megalomaniac and swings whichever way serves HIS agenda.

Hopefully, you realize my comments weren't meant to make light of this situation. I think a single death due to this virus is a tragedy. I was merely saying that what is happening in some parts of the world isn't indicative of the effects of the virus on the entire human population and that it is way too early to definitively state what the stats will be. I know the sensitive soul you've always expressed through your posting. The stats are the numbers of the pandemic so far.

Do some research and look at where the out breaks happened in the U.S. and how they could have been avoided. Open boarders and land of the free is biting us in the ass so to say.

He does have different issues to cope with, but back in 2009 we approved a test for H1N1 a month before anyone listed H1N1 as a pandemic. Ahead of the curve there. If you recall, because of the Obama Care issue, a lot of conservatives were complaining that we were too aggressive regarding treatment. That it was a political ploy or a scare tactic. A flu like H1N1 has anti-virals to treat it. And it's the flu, you know? Humans walk around with some level of immunity because we've all had it. There's even a semi-effective vaccine. COVID-19? Nope. No meds. COVID19 is new to the immune system. No one has protection from COVID19. Well, those that have recovered from it have. COVID-19 is viral right? The media called this a pandemic in the U.S when we had 20 cases and zero deaths. The number of Americans that have COVID-19 is probably really high. if so how do you explain 72 deaths?
