What I am most curious is to understand how many have been infected with the virus actually. The Shrike Send a noteboard - 03/03/2020 05:54:10 PM

How many are just confusing it with the flu. How many think its just a cold. From early signs I think the numbers of infected are dramatically higher but that most are either asymptomatic or just have a very minor version. So then only the most apparent cases are used which makes the numbers seem higher.

It does not help that the flu is spiking right now too.
