This virus is expected to kill 250,000 on the low end...
Henry Diaz
no dont stop freaking out these are the end times. what if all along martin Luther King was never dead. him and trump were on a fishing trip one day and trump had died. MLK knew that trump was going to make america great again one day so he staged his dead and took over trumps body by some Alabama nigger voodoo. Now he waited and planted the seeds of hate through outthe world and then run for president. he widened the hate here and help china release this virus. he's then gonna fake trumps death and come back as MLK and take over. this was a untited plan by the jews and Muslims. see mlk knew Malcolm X and he was the one that told mlk about the 2020 virus plan. niggers there so clever
Carson Diaz
Soooo.... 1/4 of 1%
Logan Fisher
You are more likely to die from the regular flu then covid-19
Josiah Howard
It's hoodoo jackass
Logan White
Wow just over 3 thousandths of 1 percent Lets all go kill ourselves
Ian Wilson
>2,084 cases >41 deaths ftfy
Justin White
>President Obama: >H1N1 Virus >U.S. cases: 60.8 MILLION >U.S. deaths: 12,469 that is a lie
Julian Ross
Obama didn't have a media trying to fuck him over constantly either... this is all media blowing shit out of proportion.
Adrian Nguyen
H1N1 has a vaccine and isn't anywhere near as virulent as Covid. Remember too, these potential deaths arent in place of. Theyre in addition to. So while you fucking retards continue to compare it to the flu, it has a higher infection and mortality rate all the while the flu is also killing people.
That's what makes it a fucking pandemic.
Connor Butler
thats because obama ran the country instead of attacking the media every chance he got
Julian Cruz
Or that rational, competent, leadership can calm an uncertain situation.
The 2009 flu pandemic in the United States was a novel strain of the Influenza A/H1N1 virus, commonly referred to as "swine flu", that began in the spring of 2009. The virus had spread to the US from an outbreak in Mexico.[116]
As of mid-March 2010, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimated that about 59 million Americans contracted the H1N1 virus, 265,000 were hospitalized as a result, and 12,000 died.[117] [118]
Obama was elected in 2008. It isn't a lie, it just was handled without lies and retardation.

you're either a complete idiot, or completely unaware of the literal warzone China and Italy hospitals had and are having to go through.
In what way? Please cite an example and source for the fictitious shit you believe.

>Leftists and Rightists are both claiming easily falsifiable/provable things itt >Neither side is posting actual citations Politics are a fucking joke in this country Some things to note about OPs post(probably bait) >Compares virus which hasn't reached its peak to a virus which has long been past its peak is a pretty obvious fallacy >"Panic level" is literally completely arbitrary and effectively impossible to verify. If you were to instead specify some kind of executive action the president took/didn't take or some axact statistic or events that are caused by "Panic" then that would be an actually useful statement.
from April 12, 2009 to April 10, 2010 approximately 60.8 million cases (range: 43.3-89.3 million), 274,304 hospitalizations (195,086-402,719), and 12,469 deaths (8868-18,306) occurred in the United States due to pH1N1
Total cases: 1,629 Total deaths: 41 Jurisdictions reporting cases: 47 (46 states and District of Columbia) Virus still expanding and ongoing, so no final statistics exist unlike H1N1. Again, very blatantly idiotic to compare them.
You're an idiot. You're more likely to get the flu than coronavirus at the moment; you're also 10x more likely to die of covid-19 if you get it.

>The 2009 flu pandemic in the United States was a novel strain of the Influenza A/H1N1 virus, commonly referred to as "swine flu",
That was the same strain that killed everyone during the Spanish Flu epidemic. shit wasn't novel you big gay idiot. There was historical precedent.
Aaron Garcia
38/1,329=2.86% 12,469/60,800,00=0.02% you just explained why people are worried now and why they weren't worried then, you dense piece of shit
Elijah Thompson
That was a quote from Wikipedia you dunce; please cite a source for the lie you just told.
Dominic Hill
To be fair, while Trumps response has been weak, the media worked hard to spread fear and panic over H1N1 too. I mean that’s what they do.
Austin Russell
Wait a week and see if you don’t change your perspective. I was in a ER waiting room for 3 hours last night, I witnessed several people coming in with symptoms to be tested. And it was a rural NC hospital. We just aren’t testing people enough to have accurate data.
Panic just isn't important when your president isn't claiming the virus is a hoax perpetrated by his political opponents while the entire world is going into lock down. Accurate information gives people confidence to continue about their lives. Trump lies constantly, even when his aides have to go on TV moments after a speech to fix all the untrue statement he made; how can anyone believe anything he says about this pandemic?
Brayden Thomas
realize that the current numbers reported at best have 5 days delay (for literally retarded countries like usa with very little testing done, it should be closer to 14 days). in countries where they do better with testing, they see daily increase of +20-30% cases, of which on conservative estimate 10% require hospitalization. so in general, 2-3% of active cases requires medical attention. next, check how many hospital beds your country has (wikip has list for all oecd countries). congrats, now you can make an estimate of when you will start seeing rapid increase in deaths, not even connected with corona, but just due to no healthcare available, from cardiovascular diseases, cancers etc. eu countries introduced a lot of new measures yesterday and only next week we'll start seeing how exactly they help.
The infection rate will be high after months and the conservative death rate is 1%. Some shithole countries have 10% death rates. Do the math yourself numbnuts.

the average age for the 41 fatalities is 80 yrs old.

>Novel virus refers to a virus not seen before. It can be a virus that is isolated from its reservoir or isolated as the result of spread to an animal or human host where the virus had not been identified before. It can be an emergent virus, one that represents a new strain, but it can also be an extant virus not previously identified.
Yeah, don't throw stones man. You'll aim straight up and hit yourself.
Amerifats: Think viruses give a shit about liberal vs conservative. >so dumb
Luis Phillips
Why are you trying to explain math to people supporting the guy who called the pandemic a hoax on monday?
Lincoln Jenkins
Assuming it won't get much worse...
Jason Bennett
I gave you a source showing that H1N1 was nothing to fuck around with, seeing as it killed millions. Now you're claiming it mutated for some reason even though it's literally the exact same virus as evidence by the cures from the pandemic working during the 09 scare. Just accept that you're wrong. You dont even have to admit it. Just accept that you're fucking retarded and that you form hardline stances .2 seconds after googling a topic. Faggot.
Mortality rates. I know simple math is hard for you inbred orange monkey loving cucks, but look at the mortality rate. If we’re unlucky enough to let it spread to 60 million you’re talking about millions dead IF it stays at 3.4 percent. Before you open your shithole with some bogus pro orange monkey shit, that’s the WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATIONS estimate. Who you going to believe the World Health Organization with you know doctors, or a guy who raw dogs pornstars and is friends with childmolesters
Brody Johnson
Are u retarded?
Tyler Brown
He’s very retarded
Parker Brooks
Oh right, i forgot i was on Yas Forums
Gavin Nelson
You know there are different strains of the same virus? Yeah the base virus was the same, it wasn't genetically identical; meaning it was a different bug. The seasonal flu, is NOT the same virus every year, despite being called influenza. You started this out by arguing with the definition of a word in a quote (that you're wrong about see )from a wikipedia article. What the fuck are you even talking about?
Evan Long
>It can be an emergent virus, one that represents a new strain >new strain >of the same virus
Dunno how this is related to the sitting president but whatever. Of course the media dictates panic levels and any panic, no matter how severe the disease, is bad and can cause more spread. But the WHO and all the national equivalents are on full alert, because this disease is more contagious and faaar more deadly than the regular flu. If Covid-19 would have a death rate of the regular flu the WHO would still notice, but not implement severe containment. But with an uncontained spread it has been quickly shown that the body count could be over 100 million in one year. That is a cause for concern.
Chase Wright
President Trump RUNS TOWARDS the virus.
Leo Nguyen
>12,469 Well the Italian numbers say that this is 20-30 times worse, I think they lie us and it is even worse so 400k will die there, add that lots of people that will die because it spreads really fast and the healthcare will collapse so 500-600k?...
based on your post alone, I choose to believe Trump. You should seek help-
Leo Cruz
Obama was a competent president with a functioning government.
You're all gonna fucking die.
Joseph Lopez
everything will just fine, relax, President Trump is doing everything within his power and things will good in the end, the media is completely overblowing things. Other nations were ill-prepared, but the USA is not.
