WHO chief says new virus much deadlier than flu, but less transmissible
World Health Organization Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said Tuesday that data has shown the new coronavirus disease to be considerably deadlier than the usual seasonal flu, but he added that it also appears to spread less easily.
Crucially, Tedros also said it did not appear that the new COVID-19 disease was spread readily by infected individuals who are not experiencing symptoms themselves. That news came after days of experts warning that many thousands of cases could essentially be hidden around the world, spread quietly by infected people with either mild symptoms or no symptoms at all.
Tedros said about 3.4% of confirmed COVID-19 cases have died globally, a huge increase in previous estimates which have ranged between 1-2%. Generally the seasonal flu kills less than 1% of those infected, Tedros said by way of comparison.

dead citizens pay no taxesAs far as I can tell, the American policy is to MAXIMIZE C-Virus carnage, so as to extract as many Benjamins as possible from the situation.
Right now I think the WHO is covering up for the chicoms and the lab they approved, and the CDC is screwing up way too badly to just be regular bureaucratic incompetence.
Believe, and act based on their reports, at your own peril.
