It spreads primarily through droplets dispersed when an infected person coughs or sneezes, and can also be transmitted via contaminated surfaces.
However, it may be too early to estimate fatality rates for the new coronavirus as we are still in the early stages of the outbreak.
And, unlike the common cold, the new type of virus has no vaccine and no specific medicine recommended to prevent or treat it.

Pretty much spot on, except ''unlike the common cold'' , that also has no cure, I think you may mean last years Flu.
More people die of Influenza in a similar time frame than Covoid has so far, I hope it stays that way too..
