People in good health should be fine if they were to get Its difficult to get an accurate death rate because cases are severely under reported right now. Theres people who probably had Coronavirus, got sick as you would the flu, never got tested and got better without seeking any medical help. So as of right now the death rate is 2% vs the flu usually around 0.1% in the USA. But with cases under reported that 2% would be a lot lower. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.livescience.com/new-coronavirus-compare-with-flu.html[/URL] [I]For instance, in Hubei Province, the epicenter of the outbreak, the death rate reached 2.9%; in other provinces of China, that rate was just 0.4%. In addition, older adults have been hit the hardest. The death rate soars to 14.8% in those 80 and older; among those ages 70 to 79, the COVID-19 death rate in China seems to be about 8%; it’s 3.6% for those ages 60 to 69; 1.3% for 50 to 59; 0.4% for the age group 40 to 49; and just 0.2% for people ages 10 to 39. Nobody 9 and under has died of this coronavirus to date[/I] [/QUOTE]
