hard to say... The COVID-19 situation is changing rapidly. Since this disease is caused by a new virus, people do not have immunity to it, and a vaccine may be many months away. Doctors and scientists are working on estimating the mortality rate of COVID-19, but at present, it is thought to be higher than that of most strains of the flu.
seems to be mutating with new host, I guess that's the issue. we don't really have any immunities like we do with other flu type viruses. flus have been running around humans for some time, the coronavirus just got into the human population from another species so it's a new game for us.
