Not exactly; not all of it.

It should be noted that the discrepancy between the WHO numbers and other numbers is one of officiousness. WHO has "officially" confirmed their numbers in labs. This suggests the number of fatalities will likely increase, especially if the "reported" deaths in Mexico haven't been "officially" investigated by WHO.

While I agree we shouldn't sensationalize or panic over this, I also wouldn't underestimate something that has the very real potential to kill tens of thousands in the U.S. alone, just as it had at least twice in the past 50 years.
