0-210 |
Sentence |

| T9 |
211-487 |
Sentence |
denotes |
As more data become available, average CFRs in children appear negligible, in young adults perhaps up to 1%, but in people over 60 rising to 4%, over 70 up to 9% and over 80 even up to 18% (see, for example, https://www.cebm.net/covid-19/global-covid-19-case-fatality-rates/). |
| T10 |
488-771 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Clearly, these figures can vary tremendously from country to country, and depend on the state of health of the patients and the state of the health care system, but it is likely that this sort of age stratification reflects the general characteristics of Coronavirus disease (COVID). |

Quite apart from the potential dangers of accelerated vaccine development [2], and remembering the additional danger of immune enhancement [3], even were this successful the question remains whether the most susceptible members of the population (say, those over 60) would benefit. |
