Per use? Or is that the license fee for the year?

Just for you I’ll make it the license fee

There's a website that has a tracker that constantly updates reported cases, recovery, and deaths. The mortality rate is about 3.5%.
The same mortality rate for swine flu would have given you about 2 million dead here in the US if the 59M number is accurate.
And no one today would be suggesting this is an overreaction.

I certainly understand that we should be a bit concerned.But it's approaching panic mode while it was not even close to this at the peak of the Swine Flu Pandemic when 1 in 5 Americans had it at the time.

When the Lefts last chance is Socialist and a early onset Dementia patient, they know they have to find a way to put a thumb on the scale. I love how CNN and MSNBC are now targeting the CDC and accusing them of incompetency . I honestly believe there are people who are rooting for the virus.

This one is more serious so far because the death rate is higher. I do believe there is a grain of overreaction to this, but that offsets the similar number of people who are ignorant to this new outbreak.
This ain't some lib-rul conspiracy, folks. South Korea, China and Italy have virtually shut down because of this.

Be careful, guy. The groupthink on here will resort to those terrifying ad hominem attacks and name calling.

Like I said, take it for what it’s worth.
I’ve done the two things my physician recommended: (a) get a flu shot, so I won’t contract the “regular” flu, thereby pulling resources that may need to be used for Coronavirus; and (b) wash my hands like a fiend.
Common sense.
It shouldn’t be over-hyped, but it shouldn’t be ignored either.

Although four out of five cases of COVID-19 result in mild illness, the director-general of the World Health Organization said this week that the mortality rate of COVID-19 could be as high as 3.4%.

The mortality rate right now in South Korea is .6% and that number will drop as more cases are being tested.

Correct.
The 3.4% figure is the global/WHO number.

Wouldn’t surprise me if the statistics change weekly/monthly—at least for a while.

For the record, I’m not a pathologist nor an epidemiologist.
I’m just sharing what I’ve read.
It’s up to Joe Public to do his own research and sift through the data.

The ignorance on the left is one thing all fans on this sight can recognize. It tears down the wall of partisan team support.
