Mortality Rate Similar to Seasonal Flu
Two new studies were released this week that show millions of Americans were infected with the coronavirus between March and April 21.
The studies also revel the mortality rate is much less that was reported and similar to seasonal flu.
A study by Dr. Justin Silverman estimates that there were 8.7 million coronavirus infections between March 8 and March 28.
And as of April 17, 2020, 10% of the US population has been infected or around 33 million Americans.
