The case-fatality rate is central to pandemic planning. While estimates of case-fatality (CF) rates for past influenza pandemics have ranged from about 0.1% (1957 and 1968 pandemics) to 2-3% (1918 pandemic).
SARS and MERS were more deadly, but far less transmissible.

I didn't say a thing about supply chain disruptions. But if you're implying that disruptions are due to "hysteria", then do a calculation of what 2% of 7 Billion people is.

UAL Hiring News
From a UAL Pilot Hiring email you folks in their hiring pool.
“While we currently do not have confirmed class dates past March 3, we do anticipate regular classes going into summer and beyond”
So if I’m reading their tea leaves, a new hire class pause between March and summer?

would not surprise me to see Delta take a pause in hiring.

The answer tells you everything you need to know. Dr Redfield has taken control of the press releases and official statements. He, and more level headed leaders at CDC, understand the importance of providing critical, relevant and truthful information to the public.

I expect travel to be reduced/restricted to the cities most vulnerable, e.g. San Fransisco, as well as most international travel.

Now based on what some of the DR's are saying. They fully expect mortality rate to go down significantly. Most believe the actually cases are way under reported which would significantly change the formula.
You also have to remember Influenza is estimated. They are not lab confirmed cases of influenza like this new one is right now.

I wouldn’t get too hung up on percentages. A lot is still unknown. Last report I read stated 1.4% and went on to say it was actually probably lower since a lot of people had it without even knowing it. Also, outside Hubei Province, the mortality rate was 0.4% for most of China.
