Eight have perished with Corona in Ohio.
They've identified 351 cases.
So, let's see - that's 2% mortality rate - about average.
Cuz what they say is that 90% of those tested so far, do NOT have the virus, and 98% of those that get it - survive!
My point is, sure the virus is a bad thing. Of course it's sad when anybody dies, for any reason. But let's not lose sight of the bright spot in the story - it's probably not nearly as bad as the media is making it out to be. Odds are very good that you and I will never get the virus, and if we do, odds are, we're gonna live through it, just like we did our last bout with flu.
