This is pretty standard for patients that develop ARDS (almost all cases that become "critical") whether from the flu, pneumonia, or a virus like this.
The CFR of 2.3% is significantly higher than we are used to though (20-30 times greater than the flu)

I wouldn't think so, unless there is an underlying reason they got pneumonia in the first place such as a chronic disease like COPD.
The two biggest risk factors from the China data were age and chronic disease (cardiovascular disease, diabetes, etc.)
