Quote:Calculations based on the @CDCgov scenarios suggested, 2.4 to 21 million people in the #US could require hospitalization, potentially crushing the nation’s medical system, which has ~925,000 staffed hospital beds. Fewer than a 1/10th of those are for people critically ill.

-hospitalization rate 3 % or 12
-either 1 % or a quarter of a percent of people experiencing symptoms would die. Based on other countries data.
