I wish you guys the best! Hopefully your wife will be okay! I actually had an appointment next Wednesday to see about a shoulder injury I got from lifting. But I cancelled it...There is no way in hell I'm going to go sit in a waiting room in Kaiser that dozens of other sick people have visited...

I think that it's common sense that it will drop. For example if 25,000K+ people in the USA currently have it(which I think is very possible, being how contagious it is) and there are only 41 deaths, then obviously the death rate is well below 3% although it will probably go a bit higher as...

I don't know, maybe I tend to look at the glass half full as opposed to the glass half empty.....I've always been a positive optimistic person, which is why I'm so successful in life. This is also why I know that we will get through this, and things will go back to normal eventually.

It CAN, but it doesn't mean it will. Mostly from what I've read from "the Atlantic" as well as other medical sources, say that permanent damages is much more likely to happen to those who have more severe symptoms, and I would think probably smokers as well. But even that's not a death...

They were saying on CNN that THINK the current 3% of mortality rate will drop over time. This is probably based upon what I was saying yesterday that once they get a hold of how many people have the virus, they will realize that the death rate is quite a bit lower than they thought. This is...

and that's usually just the ones who are in bad health to begin with....

If there are this many existing cases already like this guy is saying, then the death rate is extremely, extremely low!!! Much lower than they are saying as only 38 people in the USA have died so far out of potentially thousands of cases.....

I guess this virus gives me a good excuse to stay inside and play some of my favorite RPG video games over the next few weeks/months :) :)

I think I'd much rather have a higher volume than a higher fatality rate though............ What you don't want is a high volume all at once to overwhelm the hospitals and hopefully with the extreme large awareness level, it will slow down the spread... I already have about 3 months worth of...

I guess what I'm saying is that the reason the mortality rate could be lower is because you can't really get an accurate % rate unless you have an idea of how many people truly have it, otherwise the date will be skewed... I mean, 38 deaths out of 1,500 confirmed cases for example would give...

Actually if you listen to some of the doctors, they said that with many people the effects are so mild that they will come and go without the person knowing, or maybe they just thought they had a mild cold. I mean, how many people ever go to the doctor if they think they have a slight fever...

That's why alot of us have probably already had it and don't even know it....

China has it under control, so they are doing something right....

true, but a much less deadly strain of it...

Heck, for all I know, I could have had it, and I don't even know it......and I think that's probably the same for thousands of other people already, which is why I think the death rate is 1% or less...
