A little dramatic with the music
People who informed themselves early knew this was going to be worse then the Flu. It's been incredible how many people a month ago were simply refusing to believe that this was going to be much worse.

However, this YouTube video is simply a scare tactic to garner views. Mathmatically you can't predict the real numbers because countries are counting fatalities differently. Even in the US they are not looking at each death the same way. Germany is a good example where there are numerous other causes of death due to the health of the individual previous to infection.

His final point is correct. Slowing it down is pretty important at least right now. Ultimately we will need to fix issues with testing and get bureaucracy in the US to approve legit treatment options and approve them much earlier.

The biggest reason there is such a high death rate right now is simply the world was caught unprepared.

Btw...Chinese numbers are so off. They lost a lot more then these numbers everyone uses in these videos. They should be thrown out.
