I find the title very odd for a CDC article. 2.5% mortality rate crippled society though... So, there is that scary truth. https://t.co/Am0onf89cY
@alexheard Try this: https://t.co/NEjRL3zG2m
@CelesteHeadlee For comparison, the mortality rate of the 1918 Spanish Flu pandemic was 2.5%. Approximately 50 million persons died, worldwide. @richardengel should know that. https://t.co/Mc7wMR3dOS
97.5% of people were fine during the 1918 pandemic. It killed 50-100 million people worldwide, https://t.co/tRm2YaDZof

RT @deanprocter: @LennaLeprena https://t.co/tle67EoosY from US CDC makes an interesting read. Context.
The CFR is the number of infected people that die. This influential 2006 paper states that the 1918 pandemic infected 500 million people globally & killed 50 - 100 million, a CFR of 10 - 20%. But the paper states the CFR was 2.5%. Why the discrepancy?

@Laurie_Garrett The 1918 Spanish Flu case-fatality was not less than 2%. https://t.co/x9FAJLpX6W
The case-fatality (the number of deaths divided by the number of cases) is very low (~1%) whereas the case-fatality for Spanish Flu was >2.5%. This outbreak is not the same as that outbreak. https://t.co/F8o4JSahzg https://t.co/pJvza0XzzQ

“Recently, a group of researchers tested a number of antivirals in the lab for their effectiveness against the new coronavirus. They found that remdesivir stopped the virus from replicating in a lab dish.” To be clear, this is still in vivo > https://t.
@TaraNipe You are wrong. Please take time to learn about history. https://t.co/VGf4GxZNJp Also antivirals are specific to viral families. Not to fight, but please dont spread fake news more.

@MattFrieman @arambaut This is similar to the argument in 1918 H1N1 flu that the outbreaks of serious respiratory disease in 1915 and 1916 were an “early” version of 1918 H1N1. But that should given more immunity in the population against the 1918 later.

1918 Influenza: the Mother of All Pandemics An excellent review (and straightforward read for most). I hadn’t realized that all H1H1 flus are evolved the original 1918 H1N1. It shows no sign of extinction. https://t.co/nRhXKjmliy

@charlesjkenny Fatality rate not totally clear but among *known* cases it's been around 2%. Spanish flu was 2.5%, so that's in the ballpark. Wild card is that there may be many more milder cases not showing up in figures, which would drive overall CFR ⬇️.
