The one thing I have not heard answered. If I get this, will or can I recover?

Hmmm, why would nobody want to answer that?

Might I get it? Absolutely! But will I be able to recover? Sure, it will be unpleasant and horrid being sick with this. Isn’t it always unpleasant being sick with the flu or say, Lyme’s Disease, which I have had.

Crickets.

Are more people currently recovering from this than getting sick? Have people who contracted it actually gotten better.

Crickets.

Because, you know, when you can’t win at the polls, just collapse the world. I wonder, after the first economic data is released showing us in a recession, will it be a matter of seconds or micro-seconds before the media pivots from Coronavirus, pretends it never happened, and the coverage is the economy and “Trumps Recession” 24/7?

Recovery apparently includes lung Damage.

“The one thing I have not heard answered. If I get this, will or can I recover?”

In the reality all the doctors and hospitals are warning about it will depend on if you are patient 1 to 500 at a hospital that can handle, at maximum stress, 500 patients or if you are brought in after they’ve hit capacity, at least twice over (as happens when it hits).
The care you will be able to get will be more and more limited.
At one point, you could die from something very curable if you are unlucky enough to get it when this thing hits and is going full swing. A broken toe could be a death sentence if it gets infected if there’s not the personnel, time or resources to treat it.

Yes.

You dont see those stats published because they aren’t “sexy”.

If you are strong you will probably recover. You will have a 25% chance of lung damage. Is it permanent? I don’t know.

Get ready for the swamp puppet Joe Biden presidency. I am sure his son will be a billionaire then.
