That's not true at all. As has been posted in this thread and reported in the media, people between 20 and 54 (going on memory) make up a significant number of people hospitalized.

The mortality rate may stay “low” but many cases of this require hospitalization for full recovery. If the case number spikes and the hospitals can’t manage this treatment, more people die. Hope that isn’t your loved one who can’t receive care when the hospitals are overwhelmed. |

What's your alternative? Just let it spread and infect millions of people? It's pretty clear at this point that this thing is fairly contagious. If you let it infect 75-100 million people you're talking millions of people in the hospital. How's that going to work? That's going to ruin people's lives either way. |

Is he in a hospital? The media reporting on every case of a high profile athlete being diagnosed with COVID-19 as “breaking news” is just adding to the hysteria. Virtually every athlete who has been diagnosed with the virus has had minor or no symptoms. |

Allow the vast majority of the population who will have minor or no symptoms to COVID-19 to build a communal immunity to the virus through exposure and in the meantime target the social distancing to just the high risk group. |

So I figured if you had numbers to go with what you said, I would like to see them. So I can start getting caught up with everyone else. So get ****ed, for your common sense comment. |

And not for nothing, comparing the average 65-85 year old to 20-something year old kids that are serious freaks of nature, is a poor comp. |
