re: #67 Anymouse 🌹🎃

A 2% death rate is horrible.

If this became a worldwide epidemic like the Spanish Flu, and say a billion people caught the disease, fifty million would die. The remaining people would be one hell of a strain on First World health systems, let alone other countries.

Only if it really has a 2% mortality, of course. Only one death among the Diamond Princess people, one other death outside China. And that interesting lack of infections among the Diamond Princess crew. (Could Chinese air quality in cities be a factor?)
