I suppose that if you include the deceased in the herd count then the immunity stats look increasingly better:
If your over 55 with a pre existing health condition then socially isolate, if not you are extremely unlikely to be affected by it. These figures from New York mirror those in the UK.
Age of Coronavirus Deaths
COVID-19 Fatality Rate by AGE:
*Death Rate = (number of deaths / number of cases) = probability of dying if infected by the virus (%). This probability differs depending on the age group. The percentages shown below do not have to add up to 100%, as they do NOT represent share of deaths by age group. Rather, it represents, for a person in a given age group, the risk of dying if infected with COVID-19.
AGE | DEATH RATE confirmed cases | DEATH RATE all cases |
80+ years old | 21.9% | 14.8% |
70-79 years old | | 8.0% |
60-69 years old | | 3.6% |
50-59 years old | | 1.3% |
40-49 years old | | 0.4% |
30-39 years old | | 0.2% |
20-29 years old | | 0.2% |
10-19 years old | | 0.2% |
0-9 years old | | no fatalities |
