Who ****ing knows, man. All we know is that tens of thousands of people are dying and it will be in the hundreds of thousands soon. ****ing sucks.

All this. Mortality rates are all over the place and we won't really know the true numbers until all of this is over.
Prepare yourself. Prepared people don't panic.
If you have children start talking to people close to you about taking care of your family should something happen. Have a plan should anyone in your family get sick. Large groups are bad but now is not the time for people to be living alone. This thing sometimes moves fast and if you're one of the unlucky ones you can go from the onset of symptoms to ICU in a day.
Be kind to people. We'll all be relying on each other before this is done...
