"Actually, Coronavirus is estimated to have a death rate 10 times higher than the flu based on only confirmed cases while the flu death rate is calculated on estimated cases because not everyone that gets the flu goes to the doctor. Guess what? They know there are many people with mild cases of Coronavirus that are not being counted and the death rate is lower. Some experts say it's possible that it's no higher than the flu. The truth is nobody knows right now. The actual thing to fear is "fear" itself."

The better measures are,

1. how many become seriously sick, and the rate of increase/decrease

2. out of these seriously sick, how many die and the percentage.

Only these measures have any significance.

B. McFerrin gets it....
Here's a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry, be happy
In every life we have some trouble
But when you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy now

Good points and a good laugh. Time will tell.

Cases not being reported is clearly an issue and may change the deathrate.

True, people who get sick from the Coronavirus and recover without ever seeing a doctor are not in the counts. When Trump tried to say something along these lines he was mocked heavily.

We just don't know. Not everyone that dies is going to be tested to see if they have the Coronavirus either.
