Lethality will hinge on whether or not the hospitals will get overfilled - if we will be cautious now the critical cases will always have vital equipment available (assisted breathing etc.)

If not then easily avoided cases might end in deaths. (and yes it is mostly old people or people with underlying issues like smoking but hey, I still have grandparents and would prefer if it stayed that way)

Also, a lot of concern lied in the way PRC counted cases and deaths but that's a commie thing. (And no, I don't call PRC "China" because Taiwan exists )
