Just looked at the stats again in the table above. It confirms the initial claim of 2% mortality.Based upon the stats I don't know what all the fuss is about. The virus has only caused one death outside of China and the figures from China aren't to be trusted at all as they have reported a far higher death rate for their own convenience as it gives the CCP an excuse to crack down on dissidents.
But! If case resolution is reasonably defined by either death or discharge outcomes, then it goes up to 30% mortality.
That does change the assumption quite radically.
Plus don't you find it interesting how Hong Kong which is next to China has just over half the cases as sinkieland despite the supposedly closer proximity and links?
