Basically: there are a lot of people who are getting the virus who aren't getting sick. The total mortality isn't known, and right now its tracking towards CAP. While that's real bad, it's not "end planet earth" bad. Likely if you're under 40 and in decent shape, even if you get this it won't be worse than a normal run-in with the flu.

What's CAP mean?

not gonna lie being quarantined in Alaska seems like a less than ideal situation

I'm from an Alaskan fishing village, one time I saw a truck off in the distance and realized that was the first sign of human activity I'd seen in 3 days.

You get used to it.

doing some napkin math and I think they may want to build a couple more of those 1000 bed hospitals.

We should probably start building them now since we're nowhere near as fast.

there's like a lot of things to be concerned about right now

we basically have a significantly less dangerous version of SARS in the absolute (i.e. outcomes are better in those who get it) but its significantly more contagious and will likely have significantly more cases when everything is said and done.

What I would really, really caution people about right now is taking the reported number as absolute. Reported cases are those that have been tested and confirmed in a laboratory. They are going to hedge towards the cases that are serious enough to be prone to hospitalization. There are likely significant observed community cases that will not be reported because the people are asymptomatic. Coronaviruses, as a rule, are more dangerous the older you get. One of the postulations good virologists throw around is that we're seeing them more and more because the population of the world is getting older. The deaths in 2019-nCoV from the literature we have all hedge towards being older and immune compromised.

Basically: there are a lot of people who are getting the virus who aren't getting sick. The total mortality isn't known, and right now its tracking towards CAP. While that's real bad, it's not "end planet earth" bad. Likely if you're under 40 and in decent shape, even if you get this it won't be worse than a normal run-in with the flu.

all I want to know is how hard it hits little kids.

The mortality associated with CAP greatly depends on the clinical setting where it is treated. This mortality is only less than 3% in the outpatient setting, around 5�10% in inpatients not requiring ICU care, as high as 25% in intubated patients, and nearly 50% in ICU patients requiring vasopressors
