Forgive me if this is a cold question; I genuinely want to understand the answer. Isn't a 90% death rate of coronavirus patients on ventilators somewhat in tension with the message that we have to do everything in our power to flatten the curve so we don't run out of ventilators?
At least two questionable assumptions here. But, also not a doctor, happy to hear from a real one on this: - 1% of infected population going on ventilator? - full recovery by the 10% who don't die? - severe age skew and comorbidities in those people who require urgent care

What about the math behind hospitalization without ventilation?
