Could it be that the death rate is far, far lower than with Flu?
The reason I ask – If you have flu you know about it and you are knocked for six, but many cases of Coronavirus are mild and possibly undetected and will never even be reported.
This in itself will be a large cause of exposure to the virus as many people will be spreading it, thinking they have only a ‘mild cold’ or not even aware they have anything at all.
