from what I see, the flu is more contagious and has a higher mortaility rate. h1ni infected 80 million in the us alone
so why did we shut the borders for corona but not sars or the flu? when the governments talk about a mandatory vaccine with limited testing one is wise to be suspiscious
Infections
COVID-19: The first cases appeared in China in late 2019 and the first confirmed case in the United States appeared in January 2020.
Approximately 8,196,735 cases have been confirmed worldwide. There have been 2,137,731 cases in the U.S. as of June 17, 2020.*
Flu: The World Health Organization estimates that
1 billion people worldwide get the flu every year.
In the U.S., for Oct. 1, 2019 – Apr. 4, 2020, the CDC estimates that there were 39 million to 56 million cases of flu. (The CDC does not know the exact number because the flu is not a reportable disease in most parts of the U.S.)
Deaths
COVID-19: There have been approximately 444,111 deaths reported worldwide. In the U.S, 116,963 people have died of COVID-19, as of June 17, 2020.*
Flu: The World Health Organization estimates that
290,000 to 650,000 people die of flu-related causes every year worldwide.
In the U.S., from Oct. 1, 2019 – Apr. 4, 2020, the CDC estimates that 24,000 to 62,000 people died from the flu. (The CDC does not know the exact number because the flu is not a reportable disease in most parts of the U.S.)
The COVID-19 situation is changing rapidly. Since this disease is caused by a new virus, people do not have immunity to it, and a vaccine may be many months away. Doctors and scientists are working to estimate the mortality rate of COVID-19, but at present, it is thought to be substantially higher than that of most strains of the flu.
