It’s not like a flu; it’s more contagious and more deadly.
It can’t be contained like SARS; it evades screening and tests.
It’s not like 1918; we fly everywhere 
It’s not “safe outside
”

No, this is a mistake. The incubation period is variable, 1-14 days, deaths are backloaded to the 3rd week of the disease and beyond, and the disease is growing exponentially (~10x per week!) Consider that it took 27 days to kill Li Wenliang, 34, the whistleblower doctor.

Did the doctor get it 27 days earlier or 14 days? Most worrying is the consensus that it's fatal for very young, sick or very old. But here we have a presumably fit and able 34 year old fatality. The lock down of vast provinces/cities in China suggests fear level extreme?

There have been many cases overseas of folks recuperating, really doesn't seem to be particularly dangerous if you have a good, functioning immune system.

We cannot tell that until we have an adequate cohort that ~1 month old. Otherwise we are being mioslead by the backloading of severe symptoms and lethality into the 3rd week and beyond. Also, many patients -, +, -, then +. ~15% complications, depletes lymphocytes.
Loading seems to be taking a while.
