If we don't come up with a vaccine soon, about 50% of people will get it sooner or later. If you are one of that 50% , and you are my age, you will have between 15% to 20% chance of dying. Whether or not it is a big deal depends on how lucky you think you are. BTW social distancing and hand washing are will not stop anyone from getting the disease, it will "flatten the curve" or slow the spread in hope that they will find a vaccine before you contact the virus, or that there will be a ventilator for you in the hospital when you get there.

a) very optimistic, thank you
b) your numbers are way overblown
c) If those measures didn't stop anyone from getting the virus, they wouldn't flatten the curve at all----think about it
