So what are the survival rate of people 60 years old and up who gets this? Pre existing conditions or not... just in general. Anyone got data?

I don't know about a complete breakdown. Hospitals across the country literally laying off nurses right now. NYC is completely fukked, but we are nowhere near hitting capacity anywhere else.

Not all nurses are the same. They are clearly the ones specialising in the non essential areas of the hospital

Its really hard to say. Its fair to say the posted numbers on mortality rate are not really accurate due to lack of testing. The numerator on the mortality rate is accurate but the denominator is not.

There was a link to a study done by Stanford University on the previous page that suggested the ratio of actual cases to reported cases could be off by a factor of up to 50-85X, effectively reducing the mortality rate by that factor. I personally don't have a lot of faith in that study but I do think the number of cases is probably under represented by at least a factor of 10. Now are those cases equally represented by age? Probably not. ie) the mortality rate of young people is probably off by a factor of 20 while 60+ might only be off by a factor of 5.

TL;DR its impossible to know the statistics unless they are admitted to the hospital. Even then its still a guess.

More and more people reporting every day that the virus comes back or reactivates. Reinfection or reactivation is amost confirmed by now. There are thousands of reported cases of people getting "reinfected" THOUSANDS.

Reminder: Mosquitos can spread the virus in theory (this can have huge implications. Big portions of livestock can get infected, cattle can die and result in world starvation. What are we gonna do? Vaccine every animal on earth? How will the virus effect different animals?)

We've hit only 18 newly infected in the last 24hrs here in Croatia(4mil pop.). Hopefully we'll start to finally open up the damn country.

I'm not talking about hitting capacity.. I'm saying ALOT of hospitals and offices are making no money so they are laying people off yet now we are supposed to do this mass sustained effort in testing people. Who is going to do that? The hospitals laying people off because they are making no money? It's going to be a huge problem.

The fact that some of you don't understand that young, healthy people also die of the flu every year is mind blowing.
It's rare, but happens. Just like it's rare for COVID-19, but media blasts the **** out of it when it happens and some of you believe hundreds of young, healthy people are just dying from COVID-19 on the daily.
Still, the HUGE majority of deaths are from those over 60 and/or those with serious pre existing health conditions.
The same damn groups which are at risk from, you guessed it, the ****ing flu.

Some of you are convinced this virus was conjured up by satan the way you talk about it the things it supposedly can do.
