Coronavirus death rate in the USA is currently = 1.3% (that will go higher)

1 in 5 people who get the virus will have severe symptoms. 20% will get severe symptoms and 80% will get mild symptoms.

The worst-case scenario according to the experts is 80% of the population will get the virus.

There are roughly 327 million people living in America. That figure doesn't include the tens of millions living illegally in America.

If 80% of the population gets the virus that means roughly 261 million people in America will get the virus.

1 in 5 (20%) of the 261 million who get the virus will get severe symptoms. That means roughly 52 million people will get severe symptoms.
