That is 100% why this is different than all these other viruses and diseases that people keep comparing it to. We aren't all going to die and there's no reason to panic, but this thing has no treatment and you can have it for a week or more and spread it around and not know it. The only way to stop it is to keep people away from other people.

Exactly and the more it spreads the more people will die. There is no vaccine so you are relying on the immune system to beat it. There's no guarantee even for a healthy individual although obviously cases of healthy ppl dying from it are rare but it has happened.
