People: COVID-19 isn't 1918/19 influenza! It's much less bad! Me: what would COVID-19 look like without antibiotics, respirators, most surgery, supplemental oxygen, steroids, etc?

Look at the hospitalization rate; these are all serious cases. If there were no effective treatments at all (ala 1918), most would die. Hospitalization rate may be a good approximation of lethality in the absence of treatment…or if the health care system is utterly overwhelmed.
