I feel like a lamb going to the slaughter every morning...

A friend is a medical professional in a big hospital in Flint. They are being told to expect 85% of the population is going to get this, so yes, you will probably get it and so will I and everyone else on the board. The survival rate is very high though, the best estimates are over 99%, and lots of people will have it and not even know, because they will have no symptoms. Great idea to observe the safety guidelines as best you can so we can try to flatten the curve and put less strain on the hospitals at any given time, but it is not anything to be afraid of. It will be interesting, when all is said and done, to find out what the story of this virus really is, too many unanswered questions about how long it has been floating around, where it came from and how many people have already been infected but were not tested.
