If you're below 50 your chances of dying after contracting the virus are similar to that of being in a car accident if you got in a car over the course of one year (I think a car accident is higher). https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/coronavirus-age-sex-demographics/ https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/coronavirus-age-se...
I'm not sure exactly how they evaluate risk, but they probably estimate the error based on populations where very few people are studied (probably most people below 50), so it's likely if you're below 50 the chances are actually lower, I'm not sure.
Risk factors for immune disorders and car accidents are probably similar if I were to conjecture (just in: sick people tend to die), so most people on this subreddit will just get the fever. 15% of people don't even present with a fever, so it seems like the immune system can typically fight it off.
