And if 8 should happen to die from Wuhan Flu instead of 4, they announce that the death rate has DOUBLED. Even though a doubling of the death rate still fixed the overall risk of death from Wuhan Flu at about one-in-450,000. The almost-laughably minuscule numbers of deaths will be buried in the article or deleted altogether in order to purvey a sense of panic by using percentages instead. We have no panic about HIV/AIDS deaths - even though it is officially still a "pandemic". Using percentages instead of real numbers is a way to spook the herd even when the real numbers are tiny.
