just a question, it seems no different that a flu, h1n1 also takes a many lives every year, yet never ever I’ve seen cities a isolated due to any type of other flu type, the measurements governments are taken to avoid corona hitting them Doesn’t seem like they’re just trying to avoid a flue outbreak, something just don’t add up. May be is the potential of the virus to mutate? I mean oms warns about a new pandemic, basically we live with. A constant pandemia of h1n1 every year, shit I have a young relative that passed the way due to it, yet this seems something to be treated different from all other flues type.
"From April 12, 2009 to April 10, 2010, CDC estimated there were 60.8 million cases (range: 43.3-89.3 million), 274,304 hospitalizations (range: 195,086-402,719), and 12,469 deaths (range: 8868-18,306) in the United States due to the (H1N1)pdm09 virus."
"Additionally, CDC estimated that 151,700-575,400 people worldwide died from (H1N1)pdm09 virus infection during the first year the virus circulated.** Globally, 80 percent of (H1N1)pdm09 virus-related deaths were estimated to have occurred in people younger than 65 years of age. This differs greatly from typical seasonal influenza epidemics, during which about 70 percent to 90 percent of deaths are estimated to occur in people 65 years and older."
H1n1 continues to circulate ever year as a seasonal flu virus. Source:

So that's a 0.03 mortality rate per infection, there were ~61 million cases of the h1n1 virus infecting hosts.
What I was trying to say is this: How severe is the Coronavirus? and how fatal is it? Who does it specifically target? We don't know how severe it is yet, but based on sample sizes it doesn't seem
that deadly, at least in non-"2nd" world esque billions population packed countries right?
The h1n1 virus did not target the "elderly" as in 66+ year olds that much, but if we could see the breakdown it probably did mostly kill babies, young toddlers, and older compromised 50-65 year olds, If I had to guess. I'm just doubting TS because he has provided no information other than mainstream media links, and has said outlandish claims such as "the virus is extremely deadly on a 2nd infection!"
I paraphrased there, but that is comical to say. I doubt anyone has been infected twice so far so how the fuck would this guy know that? Also as a logical, general rule of thumb, after a first infection your immunity should be higher, not worse, specifically to viruses. Then we have this gem:
"I haven't even addressed the economic shock that will be a consequence to this situation. Stockpile food, water, medical supplies, and a way to protect your family in case of a breakdown in civil order. That is what a real martial artist does."
That was TS. I mean come on, that is retarded. Is this the apocalypse? TS, no offense but I call a spade a spade, sounds like a hypochondriac or a schizo conspiracy theorist. This isn't about BJJ or grappling, he's using mainstream media ABC news links to make some fantastical jump to nuclear holocaust. Yeah we should all build bunkers, that's what a real martial artist would do...lmao.
Now to be called 'catch wrestling.'
