It’s a combination
1. All viruses in the early stage go through the reaping of those most vulnerable. They get it easier and have higher mortality. It’s seen in every other viral pandemic
2. As time goes on, viruses tend to degrade into less virile and less severe forms
3. As time progresses we get a better idea the nuances of treatment as well as the protection of the most vulnerable.
I think the combination of the above three is why we see the death rate plummet.
Correct
I’ve been sick more than a week and awaiting test results. Whatever I have sucks but I’ve been way way way sicker many times
