Ok, so in mainland China, the rate of death is about 2.3%. The common flu kills 0.05% every year in America. Now, with all due respect to China, I do believe America has better doctors and scientists (imo) and I think they botched the initial quarantine with this disease.

So yeah, take precautions people. Wash your hands frequently. Be careful, but we're not quite at 12 Monkeys or Outbreak levels in the movies here.

actually there may be severe under reporting by China. The medicine reddit and even a few WHO updates are indicating that this may be more concerning than initially thought, and not just from a transmission perspective. We are starting to just now compile a body of epidemiological data, but unfortunately no useful clinical data yet.
