We are talking about a very unusual virus that has spliced in elements of HIV and SARS that has resulted in a Covid virus that can easily penetrate a human cell- a first EVER.
It does this (My PHD Biochemistry brothers explanation- he makes pharmaceutical drugs )- the insertion of the exact HIV gene sequences into Covid 19 for the coding expression of GP 41 into the viral protein envelope, enables its binding to the human cell membrane surface receptors and to be thereby internalized and deliver the RNA cargo into the human cell.
The human cell machinery is then instructed by the viral content to produce more virus, and replication of the virus in the cell ensues until the cell death and the release of the viral load into the human body.
Now a healthy human or a human with an immune system optimised to deal with stuff like tuberculosis and having such antibodies will be fine. But a human with a sensitised immune response to lung infections (old people with history of lots of lung infections in past) will likely have a situation where their body immune system is oversensitised and its this over response by a persons immune system to Covid 19 that is the killer.
What doctors in casualty in New York have said is that it is best to try to get better is at home so as to keep the dosages you are exposed to of Covid 19 into you low. Only go to hospital if you need intubation/ventilators etc.
There appears to be a connection between exposure to high dosages of covid 19 and a poor outcome in a person- as is being seen in New York Hospitals. This also explains the doctors and nurses of young age/good health dying- because they are exposed to very very high dosages of the nasty in their work environment.
Now Romulus, your hands off business as usual approach based on the Epidemiology modelling shows that the hospitals will be inundated with sick covid 19 victims- creating a further hotbed of the nasties and higher death rates.
The modelling of death rates - on business as usual and doing nothing is something no civilized western government nor society should countenance.
We are not Communist Russia under Stalin! (Ok- that is not Godswins law- must be another one for Stalin).

Do you PhD brothers understand the immune system? They may find this interview interesting, around hour 15 minutes long from MIT PhD Biologic Systems Dr Shiva. This chap is far from a David Icke or other conspiracy theorists. Jump in from around the 12 minute mark.
Prydey, you'd probably learn an awful lot from this interview
It addresses some of the misinformation in your post and how immune compromised people can deal with Covid-19.
