This thing isn't less deadly than was once thought , its actually worse if anything. Of course politicians in power are going to want the public to think its not as deadly now since they are "opening up" and want businesses to continue so we don't nose dive this year. That doesn't mean they know how to treat this novel virus, or that there will ever be a vaccine. It doesn't mean wearing masks and working in close proximity to one another isn't going to lead to everyone working getting sick eventually. Yeah actually your very likely to get it if someone you work with has it no matter what ppe you have or don't. Trump has an interest right now to make it seem less deadly even though his schizo haphazard style of leadership was just saying we shouldn't open up until there has been 14 days in a row of declines in infection rates and hospitalizations.
The Feds should have clamped down hard in early March and not relented until late April. That would have stamped it out almost completely. They could keep everyone's lights on, keep the water on, give us the checks like they did anyways and then we could have went back to work. There are countries around the world that actually did that and now they essentially no knew cases. But they had a real quarantine not a "shutdown". And im not referring to China. Look at what even Hawaii has done and how successful they've been at stopping the spread. Why is that , I wonder. This thing will be here all year and next too. Governors will likely open up, shutdown, open up , shutdown etc. until we have a vaccine or it mutates to a less virulent strain.
Interesting podcast on what we know now. Hint: not much really

The narrative that "We know nothing about this virus!" is pure BS. We know a lot about the virus at this point, but the Technocrats are operating on the assumption that unless you have performed an underwater, quadruple-blind study, you don't have enough information to do anything other than pray to Asclepius for a vaccine.
Fear mongering nonsense. But whatever, stay inside, let's all isolate together. In fact, why don't we all just go ahead and drive off the nearest cliff? Seems like a better option than morphing into Morlocks because we've let a virus scare us to death.
UK had 50,000 more deaths than usual in March & April vs 27,000 reported Covid deaths at the time.
That doesn't even include long term health impacts on people that "recover". Organ damage, dialyses, heart damage, strokes, respiratory therapy that never quite fixes them etc.

Oh, well why didn't you just say so!? Asclepius it is!
Oh Asclepius, great and powerful one, please give us a vaccine for the Coronavirus. We will stay inside, as an act of worship, until thou providest us with thine providence. Gaymen.

I hope when you get it , you don't suffer too much. May you never have the fate to not see the ones you love die absent your presence. Its a helluva thing. Its a horrible thing actually.

As Many as 50 Percent of People with COVID-19 Aren’t Aware They Have the Virus
There may be a lot of people walking around who have COVID-19 but have no idea they are spreading the virus.
The first word of this possibility came in early April from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) director, Dr. Robert Redfield, in an interview with National Public Radio affiliate WABE.
“One of the [pieces of] information that we have confirmed now is that a significant number of individuals that are infected actually remain asymptomatic. That may be as many as 25 percent,” Redfield said.
Then a few days later, researchers in Iceland reported that 50 percent of their novel coronavirus cases who tested positive had no symptoms. The testing had been conducted by deCODE, a subsidiary of the U.S. Biotech company Amgen....

So it's a death sentence for a person without pre-existing conditions now? Interesting that you'd resort to passive-aggressive death threats, though. Very cool.

Ohh Ohh! I love this part. This is when the SIFCLFs ignore what you posted and continue being sniveling cowards! Ha! Classic.

Seems like the current analysis is that if you catch it, there's a 50% chance you'll never even know.
If you do catch it, and show symptoms, there's a
1.3% chance you'll die.
Death probability higher in the elderly and those with pre-existing conditions.

I performed a citizen's arrest on my dad because he was trying to go to the barber shop. I ziptied his hands together and called the cops. My dad nearly murdered dozens of people by infecting them because he selfishly decided that his hair was too long. He could have had COVID and not even known it even with no symptoms. I'm not willing to put society at risk like that. The cops showed up and high fived me and gave me a plastic badge. They said that I was their favorite citizen deputy and that I could come by the station any time for a ride in their car.

Not a death threat. You compared me to a panic stricken person praying to an idol. Who started insulting whom? It was sincere on my part, partly b/c I think you're either posturing or have very little humility. I'm humble before something I do not fully comprehend. You seem to be boasting , fake or otherwise, I hope it doesn't rail you.
