Covid19 would be more in line with estimates for the flu, correct?
I still have one problem with this... I have never seen the flu overwhelm our healthcare system before. That little fact is inescapable...
For sure.
I just divided current given mortality rate of coronavirus by 50-85 and came up with a number that was about the same as I've seen assigned to flu. Good chance my memory is faulty though.
Coronavirus in real time definitely looks to be worse than flu in both mortality and contagiousness.
