Looks like if lungs are in excellent shape, the virus has a hard time taking foothold there because a healthy lung has active cilia which are constantly expelling unwanted stuff including germs & snots. Babies have cilia in excellent shape. Smokers destroy the cilia. Old age deteriorates cilia. And this covid-19 virus kills you by growing in lungs causing pneumonia which does not respond to anti-biotics.

Do strong breathings exercises starting today. And keep them up every hour if you get any symptoms of Covid. The illness won’t kill you if you don’t get that pneumonia, and breathing exercises can prevent pneumonia.
