According to the Alabama department of public health as of 5 hours ago there are only 571 people in ICU. https://www.alabamapublichealth.gov/covid19/assets/cov-al-cases-052420.pdf https://www.alabamapublichealth.gov/covid19/assets/cov-al-ca... According to CDC data, 81% of deaths from COVID-19 in the United States are people over 65 years old, most with preexisting conditions. If you add in 55-64-year-olds that number jumps to 93%. For those below age 55, preexisting conditions play a significant role, but the death rate is currently around 0.0022%, or one death per 45,000 people in this age range. Below 25 years old the fatality rate of COVID-19 is 0.00008%, or roughly one in 1.25 million. I am sure some hospitals will come close to capacity in some areas due to some case clusters, but Florida, Texas, and Georgia have been largely fine after opening up even in rural areas. I expect over the next two to three weeks we will continue to see drops in deaths.
