It really frustrates me that the vital statistic of age group within the fatalities is not being highlighted. However, a useful search reveals this on Case Fatality Rates:

Age (deaths/cases)------------CFR (95% CI)
≤ 9 years----------------------(0/416) 0%
10 to 19 years (1/549)--------0.18% (0.03 to 1.02%)
20 to 49 years (63/19790)---0.32% (0.25% to 0.41%)
50 to 59 years (130/10,008)--1.3% (1.1% to 1.5%)
60 to 69. years (309/8583)---3.6% (3.2% to 4.0%)
70 to 79 years (312/3918)----8.0% (7.2% to 8.9%)
