This is one of the reasons, HJ, that they're having a hard time pinning numbers on it. They don't know how many "mild" cases might be out there - cases undiagnosed, that didn't go to the hospital - and if there are mild cases out there it provides an opportunity for the disease to continue to mutate into something more deadly.
