I am not afraid of dying of this disease, because mortality rate - however higher than flu is still low - expecially in my age range.
However I'd rather avoid ending up hospitalized and intubated if I can...must not be any fun.

I posted some figures regarding percentage of people requiring intensive care and intubation in Italy, they are alarming, and they went totally overlooked because the main topic here is mortality rate, mortality rate, mortality rate, WHICH IS NOT THE REAL PROBLEM.
Well if you don't get it early - there may not be any ventilators left - as is happening in Italy. So you won't have to be intubated but you will die.
