What's the risk for people like me? [BBC Article]
Some types of people are more likely to die if they contract coronavirus: the elderly, the unwell and, maybe, men.
In the first big analysis of more than 44,000 cases from China, the death rate was ten times higher in the very elderly compared to the middle-aged.
Age of Coronavirus Deaths [WORLDOMETER Article]
​COVID-19 Fatality Rate by AGE:*Death Rate = (number of deaths / number of cases) = probability of dying if infected by the virus (%). This probability differs depending on the age group. The percentages shown below do not have to add up to 100%, as they do NOT represent share of deaths by age group. Rather, it represents, for a person in a given age group, the risk of dying if infected with COVID-19.
