So sad.

Interestingly, the number of cases and deaths in the US are both trending downward so far today.

Fingers crossed it stays that way.

How do they figure that since NYC has jumped to 7,000 today?

Most countries have a fairly low death rate and they revised the chinese death rate to 1.3% today. Germany with 18k+ cases is at 0.28%. Austria is even lower than that. The formula is simple

1) Very old (>70) massively increases risk, especially 80+
2) Very overweight, especially if diabetes
3) High blood pressure

If you aren't in one of those three buckets, you barely need to worry. If you are in 2 or more you should isolate yourself as much as possible.
