Trying to keep this thread alive for Rusty and the rest of us. Here's some interesting news, that when combined with similar studies in California, shows the fatality rate is probably much lower than previously reported.

Excerpt: "If the 13.9 percent statewide infection rate is accurate, Cuomo said, about 2.7 million New Yorkers have been infected. With roughly 15,500 deaths in the state, that would make the death rate approximately 0.5 percent."

...or about 1 in 200 instead of the 3 or 4 in 100 we've been hearing about

Antibody Test: 1.7 Million NYC Residents Had Coronavirus
