Over Half of Coronavirus Patients Have Already Fully Recovered - According to John Hopkins

"As of March 10, there were 116,588 total confirmed cases of COVID-19 globally, according to John Hopkins University. And of those 116,588 cases, 64,391 have recovered from the virus (60,098 of those recoveries were in mainland China)."

"This is to say that over half of documented cases of COVID-19 have ended in recovery. But many of the cases have not concluded, as the global death toll for COVID-19 is 4,090.

It's important to note, whenever numbers are being crunched to reach conclusions about the coronavirus, that data is still coming in. Ongoing cases of COVID-19 do not count for or against the recovery rate. What's more, experts anticipate at least some unreported coronavirus infections, probably with mild symptoms."

Sigh!

Yes if you get it it could be serious depending on your overall health condition. If healthy, probably not that serious. If like me with damaged lung and breathing problems already, yes it could be deadly. Point is I doubt it will come anywhere close to pandemics of the past in most countries.
. Rick, I hope that neither you or any member of your family come even close to having the Coronavirus!

The Department of Defense has stopped all military from taking domestic flights. However, they can still deploy on military aircraft. Vacationstogo.com has some fantastic prices on cruises I've found today...

Even the commissary at Fort Sill is cleaned out of TP. WTF CV is a respiratory disease.
Folks are hoarding so they can stay home for long periods and avoid crowds (maybe worried a quarantine will be forced on them?). TP ain't the only thing being hoarded.

Couldn't even get my favorite DiGiorno pizza yesterday! Woe is me...

There was a hong kong study that said 25% of the recovered had decreased lung function of 20-30%. Couldn't walk quickly without gasping for air. Scans showed 75% recovered had sustained organ damage.
