I found this, perhaps a ray of hope?

SBR,
Good info! The following info is a bit sketchy because it is still early - but countries that have experienced Malaria outbreaks in the past are currently pretty much negative for the COVID-19 If this holds then this builds a strong case for population immunity based upon the previous use of Chloroquine phosphate and Hydroxychloroquine. Both Malaria drugs with long approvals and known side effects. That is why POTUS is now mentioning this drug openly now and Bayer just shipped a large quantity of it to the US a couple of days ago, and so far there is now considerable evidence from several countries (China, S. Korea, France,) that anti-malarial drugs, especially chloroquine, is effective at greatly reducing COVID-19 symptoms, and possibly preventing infection in the first place. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The other drug AbbVie’s HIV combo Kaletra (Aluvia) just failed in its 199 patient trial in China. So that one is done. |

Apologies for mentioning a political view. I'll re-post/edit my post as it had relevant info.
In 2020, most deaths due to COVID-19 are over the age of 65 and has affected people with compromised immune systems or other underlying issues like heart disease. In 2009 we had 60 million Americans that contracted H1N1, over 12,000 deaths, and 80% of those were people younger than 65 years of age. COVID-19 cases will go up dramatically in the next few weeks because we're TESTING now, but the actual deaths will not skyrocket or go up in proportional numbers to new cases. Tens of millions may already have COVID-19, perhaps as early as 2 months ago, but your immune system fought it off, and you were totally unaware you ever had it. As of March 21st, 2020, over 11,000 Americans have died of the flu or pneumonia, NOT the coronavirus. Every year we have 55,000+ deaths due to flu/pneumonia. Every year we have over 40,000+ deaths due to opiods. Go out to your garage, clay bar your car, give it a coat of wax. Do a project that you always wanted to do like fix a stone chip, install that new interior carpet that's been in your basement for months, read up on how carburetors work so you can tune your Holley or Q-Jet, grab a few of your old books or magazines on muscle cars that you shelved long ago (you'll be surprised how much information is in them), maybe detail that engine compartment, rotate your tires (rarely done on classic cars anymore), detail that engine bay and take care of that paint flaking on your engine. Perhaps there's a few projects around the house you've been putting off, maybe painting a room, that you didn't have time for before because of excessive work loads before this virus outbreak. If your kids are at home, have them disconnect from social media for a few hours and watch a movie, maybe binge watch a series. Watch some comedies. Maybe look up some YouTube videos of your favorite rock bands. Re-read some of those old novels on your bookshelves that have been gathering dust. America has been through MUCH worse than this virus. Calm down, step back. Vaccines and other medications are not far off.
