Data on the first 803 coronavirus deaths in Italy:

* two of those people were younger than 50
* zero younger than 30
* virus is proving deadlier for men than women
* for people in their 80s, the fatality rate is 16.6 percent.

My coronavirus rule of thumb is that at any point, if you look back on life three days earlier, it is unrecognizable. That has been true in Italy for about three weeks. It’s terrifying to project it forward.
When I see people posting these ironic ‘social distancing’ photos on Instagram, it tells me that Americans still don’t understand how bad it will get.
Social distancing in Italy means

* your city is legitimately spooky
* NOBODY is outside
* people can’t even go to funerals of their loved ones
* people don’t visit their elderly parents
* their kids stay inside and see nobody
* they fear everybody else might be a carrier
and that is today. I don’t know what it will look like next week, or next month.
