The moral, really, is that (provided you're not of any high-risk group) there is little to worry about
Hmm, mortality rates for the young and healthy vary between 0.1 and 1%, so reason to worry even for those.
If you're in a high-risk group (like
all of my patients), mortality goes up to 40% and more.
That scares the bejesus out of me.
My patients are almost never eligible for admittence on an IC ward, let alone for invasive ventilation therapie.
They literally choke to death if they get severely ill bij this virus.
And in my line of work, we almost have no face mask etc. left. We even ran out of alcohol for desinfecting our hands.
So, yes: I worry.
