I know 2 people with older relatives who died. My wife's grandmother caught it in a nursing home and remained asymptomatic the best we could tell (she has dementia). Other people around her in the nursing did die from the virus.

I know of multiple people in their 20s-30s-40s who have said it's the worst sickness they have ever felt. Some others who were really sick for a day or 2 and now seem fine.

I'm not a doomsday person, but it's something I'd like to avoid rolling the dice on (and I do have fear of older relatives catching it). Then there are the possible long term health effects still unknown. Unfortunately for whatever reason people have to be scared into taking the simple, basic precautions.
