Its probably a lot lower mortality rate.Stop it. You're not an epidemiologist. It's fine for us to play internet expert in aero or training. This is real life. Let the experts figure this out for us.
You don't get to decide what others on the internet talk about. I am entitle to my OPINION that rates are LIKELY lower. We don't know if all cases have been identified and recorded (well maybe they are, but my opinion is we don't know). Lots of governments around the world have an incentive to under report.
Its all opions on the internet. We won't have a any real facts for a long long time. Right now we're dealing with a cross between facts, propaganda and cover ups along with media hype, so its just a ton of misinformation all floating around for everyone to discuss.
Heck the latest talk is no one from any teams (management/workers/riders) at the UAE tour tested positive for Covid19 and it MAY have just been hyper reactions. Or maybe not depending on where you read what.
You're free to think however you want. We are also free to have an opinion about you based on the factless statements you're doubling down on. It may be hard for you, but try to have some perspective and empathy about what others are going through instead of acting like you're the smartest guy in the room.
What makes you think that I would no have empathy for someone personally affected. I just had an employee who needed to visit Iran around all this stuff and was in and out of hospitals there helping support a family member potentially fighting a terminal disease around all of this craziness. Another employee has elder family members in an affected zone who have self quarantined to just be safe. For the former employee when that person left the affected zone got immediately tested (clear). Other employees of mine have made trips to China recently (at least after this would have all started). I was traveling 2 weeks ago through places now affected. Personal empathy is separate from a discussion on top level reported deaths and reported/recorded cases. They are not mutually exclusive.
You're reading too much on a discussion about reported total deaths and total reported cases and comparisons with other causes of death (and we're all going to die anyway)
