This disease is very infectious. I would posit that in one year, almost everyone will test positive. People with healthy immune systems, children, and people under the age of 70, will be asymptomatic and/or most likely recover without incident. People with pre-existing chronic conditions and the elderly will more likely die. Current cases are not consistently and reliably reported. As the sample size of verified cases increases, the fatality rates will be smaller if current death profiles remain the same.
All of this is assuming that a vaccine is not found. Polio was deadly once too.
Wash your hands, don’t hoard, and take care of the elderly.
This is just MHO. Your mileage may vary.
