[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 4401703, member: 24302"] All we can go on is the number of known cases and how many have died from that group. As more cases have become known the number of severe cases as percentage of the overall number has fallen from 18% to 7%. It's not an automatic death sentence to get this but you have to factor in South Korea's catching many cases early and quarantining them as well as treatment to lessen the number of deaths as well as the spread. We are nowhere near the effectiveness of the South Korean system so better to assume it's going to get much more severe in the U.S. and catastrophic in places like India and Africa. For the life of me why anyone wants to treat this as a solely American political issue as some are doing is beyond me. Worldwide KNOWN cases jumped over 5000 on Friday. It's the exponential growth that will ultimately determine how many die. [/QUOTE]
