On Stanford Medical School's John Ioannidis Recently Claiming that Our Policy-Makers Have Been "Severely Overreacting" to the Threat Posed by the Wuhan Virus - https://www.statnews.com/2020/03/17/a-fiasco-in-the-making-as-the-coronavirus-pandemic-takes-hold-we-are-making-decisions-without-reliable-data/

Yeah, he's done a meta-analysis of the data and it appears much more probable that a) the overall death-rate of the corona-virus (and, yes, it's clearly more dangerous for the elderly but OVERALL is what he's looking at) is likely closer to 0.125% than it is to the 1 to 2% originally thought and b) this entire concept of shutting down the economy when less draconian measures would be equally effective (quarantining the elderly, social distancing, hand-washing, etc.) without costing trillions is some serious overkill (akin to dropping the speed-limit to 5 miles per hour to eliminate all road deaths). Please, check out the link provided and decide for yourself.......................................................................................................P.S. He also provides an anecdote which illustrates that even with some of those supposedly lesser virulent strains of corona, the death rates in infected nursing-homes have sometimes reached as high as 8%......and that nobody has ever suggested that we shut down the entire economy for it.
