Well observing what is happening in Italy I don't think your fatality argument is relevant. Covid-19 is extremely virulent & contagious and its rapid spread overwhelms medical facilities. The biggest problem here is the lack of testing, to get a clear picture of the pandemic, so we really have no idea of the number of infected..
It seems that a lot of infected individuals are a asymptomatic see: https://www.ft.com/content/0dba7ea8-6713-11ea-800d-da70cff6e4d3 Testing everyone is a solution as there are ~50% asymptomatic, it is those cases that need to be identified and quarantined!

These are used to treat malaria, arthritis and asthma. They have been shown to act as an ionophore to assist zinc ions to penetrate the cell membranes and thus destroy corona type viruses. This has been known to the CDC for 14 years. The lying bastards have kept this close to the vest. The FDA is typically foot dragging about approving chloroqine for corona virus treatment, despite the fact that it is being used successfully in several other countries. One other thing. The fatality rate of cov19 is actually lower than influenza. If you compare known cases of flu deaths, 10%, to known cases of corona deaths, 2%, you get a different picture. Instead we get a comparison of CDC estimated flu cases to known cases of corona virus. Sneaky, aren't they? Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds.
