Over a thousand have died so far in Italy. Isn't that a good reason to take it seriously? Because once the death rate goes up, it seems too late to stop it without very extreme measures.
During the same period those eight died more Britons became millionaires through playing the Euromillions Lottery, FFS!

The latest official running total of worldwide coronavirus deaths is 4,984.

The way the corporate media's carrying on it's understandable if people mistakenly believe the figure's in the tens of millions.
