I made a math error. there are still a bunch of morons who think this is no big deal.
and then there are those who want to nit pick every thing that is written down on a discussion forum and say "got ya'.
I claim to dislike the people saying its no big deal. thats all I claim
just tired of the armchair experts saying its no big deal. the flu kills more people.
flu kills more than Ebola, but no one is shrugging that off as no big deal.
yep.,, right. typing too fast. .007% of our population, rounded at 300 million is 2.7 million. that is an acceptable loss rate. hell with this virus. I'm having a party.
I think you are missing the part where without containment efforts, it is estimated that as much as 50% of the population would catch this around 150,000,000 people in the US alone. if only 3% die - you get 3,000,000 deaths. a bit more than the regular flu. I don't think I prefer this version.
