Then maybe the death rate of this thing might be less than 1 percent of everyone. Hmm Doubtful based on the tracking of those exposed and using statistics. If 1000 people were in an area and there ends up 500 cases, and 10 people die. Its possible only 500 were ever even infected, but at max 1000 would be. If you look at worst case stats and extrapolate to the overall population, you can still figure worst case. In the example 10/1000 would have died (1%), but theyre only counting confirmed infections. What youre saying is the total population that could have ever possibly had it but gone unknown, which they can still calculate among isolated areas by tracking people that would have been exposed, infected, shown symptoms, and deaths. --- If you don't want to argue about something, take the initiative and stfu.
