Corona Virus Death Rates – What Are Your Odds Of Surviving?

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Based on the current data, which is completely dodgy, about 17% of those contracting the virus will require hospitalization.  Of those who are hospitalized, assuming a pandemic with medicine and oxygen shortages, about 1 in 3 will die.  So that means about 5.5% of those contracting the virus will die.

Based on global birth/death rates, a city the size of Wuhan (11 million) would expect to see about 775 people die per month.  If the entire city were to be rapidly infected, that would mean 605,000 additional people would be dying in a very compressed time frame, perhaps on the order of the next few months.  They are going to be burning bodies like mad over there.

The virus kills by inducing a cytokine storm, which occurs when the immune system goes on a rampage destroying infected cells once it figures out what the virus looks like.  This can be very damaging to the body if it happens too rapidly.  This intense reaction by the immune system ends up destroying lung tissue and causing a viral pneumonia to set in.  The destruction of lung tissue results in a compromised lining of the lungs that can then lead to a bacterial pneumonia complication on top of the viral pneumonia.  So basically it kills you by drowning you in your own bodily fluids.

The very young and the very old are provided some marginal protections from dying because their immune systems are weaker on average.  Their weaker immune systems give their bodies more time to react to the virus by not going on a rampage the minute the body figures out the virus is a foreign invader that needs to be destroyed, along with all the cells it has infected.

Nicotine is known to mitigate some of the effects of a cytokine storm by down-regulating the immune response.  So perhaps stocking up on Nicorette gum and popping some the minute you feel sick might not be a bad idea.  Of course, this could lead to further issues given the toxicity and addictive nature of nicotine.

With the current assumed death rate, that means we’ll probably see about 18 million people die here in the US once it goes “viral” here.

      Superb survival odds – its a Virus Of No Concern (Unless you are frail elderly or already close to taking your last breaths anyway)

      - its all hype & FEAR PORN PROPAGANDA READ ON >>>

      Here’s …….The National Post …..& Healthline ……Who BOTH – Stop Short …..Of Naming
      – Any Individual BULLSH!TTERS – Spreading >>>> THE FAKE PROPAGANDA FEAR PORN On B.I.N
      That They Are Referirng to …..

      EXPERT OPINION FROM – HEALTHLINE.COM
      The bottom line

      Extensive news coverage of the new coronavirus outbreak …. can make the situation
      >>> seem much worse …. than it actually is.

      >>> Annual Regular Influenza Virus …. still causes>>>> far more >>> illness and death worldwide.

      EXPERTS also emphasize – that this outbreak >>>> is significantly …… less dangerous
      >>>> than previous….. coronavirus epidemics…. . like SARS and MERS.

      https://www.healthline.com/health-news/dont-freak-out-about-the-coronavirus-just-yet#The-bottom-line
      …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..

      THE NATIONAL POST
      A recent article by University of Hong scientists published >>>>> by the journal Lancet states …..

      Based on the number of reported deaths when the paper was published Friday,
      Coronavirus would actually produce….. a mortality rate of >>>> just 0.2 per cent — akin to that >>> of regular influenzas.

      “We don’t freak out about seasonal flu, …..we experience it every year,”
      said Matthew Miller, a microbiologist who studies viruses at McMaster University.

      “The people most likely to die from seasonal flu are …….the elderly and the very young
      … The same is very likely to be true …….with this …… new coronavirus outbreak.
      The people who are at highest risk …..are the people at the highest risk >>>> for any type of infection.”

      So There You Have It – CoronaVirus – Ranks the lowest of the low, the bottom of the bottom
      in a weakest of the weak league of it’s own – when it comes to viral threat & dangers

      The rest is JUST CLICK BAIT & FEAR PORN
