COVID : If the only risk factor for COVID or other viral infections is age over 65, the recovery rate is excellent. It is still important to practice good hygiene, rest, fluids and monitor for worsening symptoms.

COVID 19: The COVID-19 Hospitalization and Death by Age chart can show you information by age groups (but does not factor in risk factors). REF: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/covid-data/investigations-discovery/hospitalization-death-by-age.html
