I would like to end with some data on the COVID-19 mortality rate, mixing Imperial College estimates of those infected of COVID-19 with data obtained from the Spanish national health system, Sanidad, regarding COVID-19 deaths by age group.
Imperial College estimates that in a country like Spain for every diagnosed case, there are 50 undiagnosed cases of people who are asymptomatic or whose symptoms were not severe enough to get tested. This is reasonable because in Spain or Italy your symptoms have to be very severe to be tested. We can therefore estimate that the mortality of COVID-19 in Spain is much lower than headline statistics suggest for people under 45. It is also very low for those under 65 . And it is quite lethal for those 65 or over .
I imagine that when you read that the US should now consider a lockdown only of those over 45 and the rest should lead mostly normal lives while treating COVID-19 if sick you will think that I am exposing that younger population subgroup to tremendous danger. ButSomething is loading. Do you have a personal experience with the coronavirus you'd like to share? Or a tip on how your town or community is handling the pandemic?

martinvars Los jóvenes también corren peligro
martinvars I'm 52 and am just as tired of this lock down as 45 year olds . how do you know what makes people vulnerable ? If your healthy go out if your not stay home , simple as that and don't have contact with people .
martinvars OK but the reality is a lot of 45 and above are essential workers and have been out in the community the whole time ; 65 and older people have been doing their own grocery shopping so your theory of how the states should open back up is stupid .
martinvars It should be a discipline conversation
