Flu killed 80,000 US citizens in the 2017/2018 flu season. Will COVID-19


kill more or less than that in the next 12 months here in the US?

Before someone accuses me of being ghoulish, the point of this exercise is to determine if the extent of the reaction is warranted. I personally don't believe it is, but time will tell.

As you can probably surmise, I'm predicting COVID-19 deaths will be less than 80,000. Far less.
