John52 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Death rate is impossible to calculate.

Barryd999 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 John52 - 2020-03-01 5:28 PM Death rate is impossible to calculate. Probably many mild cases not reported causing over estimation People who have survived so far may die from it in the future causing under estimation We may get a vaccine etc They say the mortality rate is 2%, Flu is 0.1% I think but as you say many more could have it and not even know they have had it. Most of us have probably had a "Corona Virus" at some point, I think a large number of colds are Corona Viruses. Some interesting stuff here https://www.pbs.org/newshour/health/why-its-too-early-to-compare-covid-19-with-the-flu Whats also worrying is the economic impact. If they start shutting down travel, entire cities and places like china grind to a halt. Apparently thats why petrol went down this week. Less demand for oil in china.

John52 Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Britain particularly vulnerable because of its gig economy. Over a million workers who don't get sick pay,so might have to carry on working. And most are in close contact with others. But world population growth is unsustainable. We are already seeing results in housing crisis, mass starvation, deforestation, global warming etc. The old and weak have to die to make way for the next generation. Its the natural cycle Is Coronavirus Gods way of solving the problem thats too difficult for populist politicians to deal with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats good news as the NHS badly needs staff but also more funding and new hospitals built. UNISON health officer Guy Collis said: “A decade of Tory underfunding has left our NHS struggling to cope and this is having a damaging impact on its devoted workforce. “Ongoing understaffing means we are more dependent than ever on the goodwill of health workers.” https://www.unison.org.uk/news/2019/12/nhs-staff-shortages-increase/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well put it this way, I hardly ever get colds which is basically often a corona virus and never had the flu. Everyone just stick to a diet of cheese and Scotch and you will be fine. On a serious note if one fifth of the work force get sick as suggested might happen that's 6 million people. If twenty percent need hospital care that's still well over a million.
