Very contagious. If you take national deaths and divide by cases you get 6%. 75% of the total deaths nationwide are over age 65. In Fl. deaths divided by cases is 4.2%. So 75% of 4.2 is 3.15%. If you take Sumter, Marion, and Lake together, you get 4.9%. Then 75% of that is 3.7%. So, 3.7% of the people you run into daily in the Villages area will probably die before this is over. CV IS very deadly!
