The 2013-16 outbreak could have had a much higher mortality rate; the mortality rate among *reported* cases was less than 50%, however some estimates place the unreported cases between 17% and 70% of the total infected, so a firm grasp of the mortality rate is very hard to get hold of

I don't agree 100% (I still think class systems play a big part), but definitely an intelligent observation, yeah.

[@RojoBoxeador]

I still think our education is no where near the Netherlands though. Dutch children are generally brought up with healthy discipline and it's no coincidence all the kids there can speak basic, fluent English by secondary school (age 11). Very impressive government.

As a result, they all have to compete, so a few get pretty retarded.
