The only way to measure lethality is the number of deaths vs the population. We have no idea how many people have the virus. So the only information is total population and total deaths. The numbers simply dont lie. Look them up if you want but I don't need to know that 40k dead in a nation of 320 million is NOT 6%. Or 1%.

anyways, part of the danger is that when you have a city that gets hit really really hard like New York, you also have a sizeable amount of people who get 2 symptoms and think they have it and rush to the ER. that combined with the influx of *real* patients presents a very serious problem for hospitals

and then you have other things to consider, like ambulances. if you make no effort to flatten the curve and it spreads so fast that thousands of people get it and need ambulances, all of your emergency services are now spread very thin

it's just no good all around, and if you want to play with your health that's absolutely your choice and you should be allowed to make it. but i will also laugh at you for making it

hopefully whatever vaccine they develop, it actually helps to eradicate the virus and we don't get something like the flu vaccine, which only works half of the time(about)

another thing is that this virus seems to mutate pretty easily, i think we have 3 strains already and we're only 6 months in
