Yes, this is exactly correct. And there's some reason to believe that the most severe cases are the result of an overactive immune response (though I haven't kept up with research into this hypothesis, so don't take my word for it). I don't tend to place a lot of emphasis on downvotes on this topic. I have a background in this area, so I know when I'm on solid ground, and there are a lot of people who simply don't want to accept the prevalence of asymptomatic infection, even today. More generally, nuanced opinions about this virus are targets for attack from both sides of the political spectrum. It's a tough time to be a scientist.
