The stats are also very clear about who is most vulnerable to the effects of the virus. People who are unhealthy with compromised immune systems. Studies done in Italy showed that people who died had on average 3 co-morbidities be it T2D, heart disease, High blood pressure, asthma, etc.
The herd immunity in general has been proven many times. Proven for coronavirus? No, but many doctors are optimistic.

I meant to say that the vast majority are in NY City and its immediate suburbs; I stated previously that 95% of ALL state deaths are in NYC and its suburbs. FYI the NYC website is stating that recent data is incomplete due to reporting delays.
Nonetheless, as New Yorkers we are just trying to not get sick and to survive this pandemic. Heck I even have to wear a mask and gloves just to throw out my garbage because two families on my floor are COVID positive. Bottom line is that everyone here is in fear because you don’t know how your body is going to react to the virus unless you actually get it.
