    More in this (relatively reassuring) vein here https://slate.com/technology/2020/03/coronavirus-mortality-rate-lower-than-we-think.html …https://twitter.com/NBCNews/status/1235956761015783427 …

    WATCH: "The best estimates now of the overall mortality rate for COVID-19 is somewhere between 0.1% and 1%," Adm. Brett Giroir, assistant secretary for health at HHS, says. "That's lower than you heard probably in many reports ... it's not likely in the range of 2 to 3%" pic.twitter.com/bAvS7LNWI8

        So with 14 deaths, that means the number actually infected in the US is likely closer to 1,400-14,000, than the 236 confirmed.

        How is this reassuring? It means we're not testing enough people with symptoms and allowing the virus to spread unnecessarily.

        It means the mortality is on par with the flu relatively and just like the influenza mortality heavily skewed towards elderly. It’s 100% reassuring and S. Korea data mirrors it. Which is a progressive proactive 1st world democracy.

        "Based on our best guesses founded on incomplete data, we surmise that Covid-19 is probably only up to ten times more deadly than something that kills about 30,000 Americans annually."
