At this point we know the virus deadly for elderly with underlying health problems. To healthy people this virus might only present the symptoms of allergies acting up.

The only people going to the doctor are those with severe like flu symptoms. You cannot determine the mortality rate unless you know the total number of those with the virus.

But we will never know that number because many people with the virus show little to no symptoms.

On paper the death rate appears high but in reality it is much much lower.
