Virus

In the past most people who contacted the flu did not report this as they just stayed at home until they recovered so there is no way to get an accurate count on how many have the flu at any given time. The data on the cornoavirus says that 118,000 people world wide have contacted the virus and 4,300 have died which represents a 4% death rate. If you assume that many others have or have had the disease but go unreported then the death rate is lower. If you add in the fact that most who die from the disease are older citizens with weakened immune systems then the chance of the ordinary citizen dying is again lower. A senor citizen with underlying chronic health problems would be wise to stay close to home.
