Article focuses on just fatalities. But there is evidence that infection can cause other problems for survivors. For example, rupturing of pulmonary alveoli. How quickly can those regenerate? Wikipedia says we have 300 million alveoli. If you lose 10% to the virus, is that OK? By itself that's probably not a big deal, but let's say you're a smoker who has lived his whole life in a polluted city. So you come out of ICU with only 50% of optimal lung capacity. Is that still OK? What if you only have 20% left, are you barely hanging on? Do you have to walk around breathing supplemental oxygen?
