I think it’s more and more looking like the mortality rate is lower than initially predicted due to massive underreporting of asympomatic/mild cases. Looking at the Diamond Princess there are (so far) 6 deaths out of 700+ cases in a population skewed towards risk groups.
- bryanrasmussen 7y agoSo assuming 40% of the world gets it, and 1% mortality that's about 30,120,000 dead. If it's 70% of the world gets it approximately 52,710,000 dead however, I think once we're at 40% of the population having it I would expect things to go worse because that is a lot of people overloading the health system.
