"Dr. Paul Auwaerter, the Clinical Director for the Division of Infectious Diseases at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine echoes this finding, “If you have a COVID-19 patient in your household, your risk of developing the infection is about 10%….If you were casually exposed to the virus in the workplace your chance of infection is about 0.5%”. According to Dr. Auwaerter, these transmission rates are very similar to the seasonal flu. There isn’t a single death reported below the age of 10 in the world and most children who test positive don’t show symptoms. 93% of people who think they are positive aren’t and 95% of people who are tested aren’t positive.1% of cases will be severe. Globally, 80–85% of all cases are mild. These will not require a hospital visit and home-based treatment/ no treatment is effective"
