Has anyone seen that - it may be old news but hadn’t seen it.

Still, 5% of not surviving if you are above 60 without pre-existing conditions is quite scary. I made sure to tell my parents not to leave the house unless 100% necessary. They live in another state than I do, otherwise I would be picking up groceries and such.

In lighter news, my wife's Grandmother came down with Coronavirus a few weeks back. she is about 75 and has lung cancer. She was brought home last week, recovered. We are thankful that it happened before the NYC hospitals became flooded with people, as she was able to get the care she needed with the proper machines and equipment.
