Lets extrapolate based on the cruise ship data. Say 20% of people get infected, of which 1% are fatalities.
For the US:
- 327 million population
- 65.4 million infected
- 654,000 die
For comparison, FastStats - Deaths and Mortality :
- 647,457 from heart disease
- 599,108 from cancer
I'm not putting any value judgements on those figures, just putting some numbers out for comparison. Acknowledge there are significant assumptions at play here.
I'm not in the US, I'm in a small remote Country with very few cases so far.
