4 more deaths just announced in Washington State, bringing the total to 6. That means that it is likely that there are probably at least 300 undetected cases in the community.
Striking out my assumptions. Three of the deaths occurred in one nursing facility. Since we know that mortality increases substantially with age, an outbreak in a nursing facility would be expected to have a very high mortality rate so dividing it by a generic 2% mortality rate would be inappropriate.
