(4,110 posts)However, for some people it can cause serious illness. Around 1 in every 5 people who are infected with COVID-19 develop difficulty in breathing and require hospital care.

Now, I know you New Mexicans are tough hombres but around these parts a disease that requires hospitalization for 20% of its victims is not fucking harmless in 99% of the cases.

(64,425 posts)We're over 4% of confirmed cases, but experts have opined that as many as 8x as many people were infected, as the number of confirmed cases
So, it would be a mortality of 0.5%. (Still huge)
Of course, PINO doesn't understand any of this.
