” suggest that perhaps 90% of all people who “get” Cover19 do not get sick”

you keep repeating this, I just don’t understand it. Can you please explain to me why that changes anything?

say you live in a city of 1,000,000 people If R”L you had to choose a disease to infect the city. would you choose disease a. where 100% get it it and 10,000 die a fatality rate of 0.1% or b. A disease that infects 5,000 people and 5,000 die a fatality rate of 100%

(for purposes of this question lets assume you want as few people dead as possible)
Why does the fact that 90% of those infected w/ the coronavirus don’t get symptoms make things better?
