Many suspect our fatality rate would be more like Italy because once we get 500,000 cases in the US then our healthcare system will be unable to provide proper care. So we would have somewhere between 1 million and 15 million fatalities.
50% of 330 mil get infected. 1-5% die. Do the math.
This statement is fear mongering nonsense. There are already more than a million infected in the US. Italian doctors were reporting strange pneumonia cases as early as November. This virus is so widespread already. Yet if you keep watching the reported numbers, this thing is just starting, which it isn’t. It’s been here for months. It’s only exponential on charts. The charts are incomplete at best.
