How many tests were done for Swine flu?
What was death rate of Swine flu based on actual resting?

In time, we will know the death rate of the Corona Virus and through various tests including anti body tests?

We have no idea how many people had the Swine flu and lived because the sample size was so small for testing. In my opinion, I think a healthy person under 60 with no underlying medical issues has about a .005 chance of dying from this virus. I think in time that will be proven, just my opinion. I am not saying do not be safe, but if over 60 and have underlying issues lock yourself up and keep others away from you. If not, live your life and still wash your hands and stay away 6 feet from others out of respect.

We shit down an entire country, yet we allow abortions to kill 50,000 people every 60 days and don't bat an eye. Same people living in fear support an unborn innocent baby get slaughtered with no chance or choice to live life.

Rant over, but just answering those who said I am uninformed. 

It is estimated that roughy 50m Americans contracted H1N1 in 2009 and 12,000 died from it over the course of a year, making it less deadly than the season flu. 

Even for the season flu, we have to deal with estimates because we cannot and do not test everyone for a number of reasons. We don't even have the best statistics for months after the flu season ends.

I say that to highlight the fact that the 58k deaths that we're at right now is undercounting deaths that have occurred and is only for a period of roughly 2 months, not a year.

This is already more than the season flu. It's nearly 5 times as many people as H1N1 killed in a year.

Suggesting that this is a "bad case of another flu" is uninformed for a number of reason. Coronaviruses are incredibly different from influenza and the data already shows that SARS-CoV-2 is far deadlier. Trying to pivot to abortion just highlights the fact that you realize that said something incredibly misinformed.
