With 646,000 dead worldwide from regular flu it is presently more dangerous than the Coronavirus

However, all this could easily change during the next year. We'll just have to see just how lethal the coronavirus is worldwide. For example, if it functions like the 1918 Flu Pandemic the ratio could be instead of 50 to 100 million dying worldwide from that to 300 to 400 million dying in the next 2 to 5 years time with a coronavirus worldwide.

However, the answer is: "We just don't know what the new Coronavirus is going to do worldwide. We also don't know if it is going to mutate into other strains worldwide too during the next 2 to 5 years time.

So, there may or may not be a vaccine that works to stop the spread of this too. The more variations there are of this virus the harder it will be to stop. Also, how communicable is it. Is it only through touch or is it airborne. I personally don't know the answer to this question either. But, if it is airborne as in coughing it could spread very fast and if it is more lethal too that could really be a problem around the world.

646,000 people dead from regular flu sounds like a lot of people to me. However, over 2 to 5 years losing 50 to 100 million people like in 1918 sounds a whole lot worse. And then the ratio of now would be 300 to 400 million gone in 2 to 5 years potentially too.

So, we'll have to see how it goes.
