- lwansbrough 6y agoSurvival shouldn’t be the only objective, there are plenty of lasting impacts that aren’t death experienced by many more people.
- eanzenberg 6y agoWhen 20m Americans have had it, you’re going to see some weird edge cases.
- wolco 6y agoAt such a high and serious rate?
- jp_rider 6y agoWhere do you see that rate in your source? You seem to be off by an order of magnitude. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-01738-2 https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-01738-2 Edit: I misread your qualifier of "under 50 age group". Overall fatality rate seems to be around 0.4% according to the CDC site.
- goalieca 6y agoThe over fatality rate is actually lower since that listed rate only applies to symptomatic patients. Given their estimate for Asymptomatic 35% you arrive at 0.26%.
