My niece, a senior nurse in the uk, along with my sister both got covid at the same time they were quite ill but told to stay at home and take paracetamol and only seek medical if they had a high temperature or stated to hallucinate. Both were quite ill for a couple of days but survived. A good friend of mine who has had a heart condition was taken to hospital and tested negative for covid, he then got covid in hospital, did his quarantine time but sadly days a few days later. No doubt this will go down as a covid death.
I think it’s misleading (and wrong) to calculate the recovery rate as you have. Including active cases in the denominator when most of these will recover gives an artificially low recovery rate. The real recovery rate is over 99%
