      Still: we're way smarter, richer, & healthier than in 1919. Some think most 1919 deaths were due to a bacterial co-infection – they hadn't even discovered penicillin yet!

      No, not really, we may be in the West, but there are nearly as many ppl living in extreme poverty today as there were in 1800. (90% of 1B in 1800 vs 10% of 7.5B now, that's 750M in extreme poverty, w/o ability to get medical care, much less get into ICU as so many need w/COVID19.pic.twitter.com/23uV2CXfRb

      From an eyeball estimation, your graph suggests about half as many people, in absolute terms, in 'extreme poverty' in 2015 as in ~1919 – which supports, rather than refutes, my claims above.

      750M in extreme poverty wouldn't survive bad case. Many just above that wouldn't either – extreme poverty is <$2/day (adjusted locally). And, again, there are millions here in US w/o healthcare. Ppl who won't seek medical care. Self-dentistry is a thing. They'd not have a chance.

      Yes, they'd mostly survive the bad case, because twice as many people were in 'extreme poverty' during the 'Spanish flu', and over 96% survived even then, in a world with far less knowledge/resources/capacity/treatment-options.

      Did you not bother reading the thing I posted earlier, where entire villages died in 1918? National populations were decimated by 15%? 33%? where up to 70% of pregnant women died? "Bad cases" need ICU/oxygen support. Where do you suggest those in poverty or homeless get that?pic.twitter.com/a3d120NDLA

      You said "750M in extreme poverty wouldn't survive bad case". I read as "bad case scenario for world", implying high overall rate of death among very-poor. But your own graph showed ~1.3B extreme-poor in 1919; even if all 50M 1919 flu deaths among them, that's 96%+ surviving. …

      ICU/oxygen. This isn't 1918 flu, it's different disease w/different means of attack. There are significantly more ppl being hospitalized w/this than w/regular flu (today's), of those many need ICU (all the while being contagious, possibly infecting others in hosp). Poor will die.

      Putting aside both problems with China's response & reporting, do you have any reliable 'requiring hospitalization' numbers from outside China?

      I have seen best guesses from 14-17%.

          Yes, pretty good, as a bunch of point-in-time guesses. Suggests CFR of 0.9% (95%CI 0.5%-4.0%). If as some suggest 20x more mild cases never reported, IFR is ~1/20th that: 0.045% (95%CI 0.025%-0.2%)
