…this suggests that the overall clinical consequences of COVD-19 could ultimately be similar to that of severe seasonal flu, which has a lethality rate of around 0.1%, or pandemic influenza such as that of 1957 or of 1968, rather than those of SARS or MERS, characterized respectively by a lethality of 10% and 36% and which, incredible to say, did not produce any alarmist campaign in our country.
