Yes (look at SCOTUS USA vs. Saudi decision on 911 deaths) and No (look at SCOTUS mexican teen vs border patrol decision this year)
most importantly, have sex with someone close to you when in NYC https://www1.nyc.gov/assets/doh/downloads/pdf/imm/covid-sex-guidance.pdf Governments care about you.
They are using an ice skating rink in Madrid as a morgue and think I read a couple of days ago authorities were planning to set up an extra morgue, so I don´t doubt people are dying from the virus, but not sure why some countries seem to be hit much harder than others, and some well managed countries still adopt rather lax measures, like Sweden, Nederlands or Singapore. Not sure if we will ever be able to compare the cost/benefit of different strategies. I´d probably try to fly the family to Sweden at the moment if not afraid a strict lockdown might be decided there soon as well- really shitty situation, not many places to escape -less concerned by the virus than the lack of freedom here, although if one of us get sick I´d rather it to happen in a place with a health care decent and not overwhelmed (only family member i have working in a hospital in Spain is outside Madrid btw, in Southern Catalonia. She´s a nurse in the ER and so far they suffer neither congestion nor lack of equipment. Yet 150 kms North in Barcelona they seem to be in panic) Lockdown might be quite long, it´s been very strict in Spain, with people not even allowed to stroll or exercise in the streets around their house/apartment for over 2 weeks, and it looks unlikely to end before the end of April, it might last longer if the government has no exit plan. There´s talk now in Germany to use antibody tests, possibly to let part of the population out of lockdown sooner (it is way less strict in Germany than in Spain), but haven´t noticed this option discussed here yet (I only read the main titles of the local news though). https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidn...navirus-approach-is-so-different-from-others/ https://www.cnbc.com/2020/03/30/swe...s-very-different-from-the-rest-of-europe.html
Why 'Death Rates' From Coronavirus Can Be Deceiving https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2020/03/27/821958435/why-death-rates-from-coronavirus-can-be-deceiving
I´m not sure why you quoted my post to post your link but it´s welcome anyway, some studies even estimate the death rate below 0.5%. Noticed it mentioned the anti body tests being still months away, that doesn´t sound good, a bit lazy to look it up now, wondering if Germany is researching those and expecting to put one on the market sooner

Teen whose death may be linked to coronavirus denied care for not having health insurance, mayor says A teenager in Lancaster, California, who may have died from the coronavirus last week, was turned away from an urgent care because he did not have health insurance, the city's mayor said. In a video posted to YouTube on Wednesday, Lancaster Mayor R. Rex Parris said the 17-year-old had been sick for a few days and had no previous health conditions. Parris said the teen went to an urgent care March 18. "He did not have insurance, so they did not treat him," Parris said, adding the boy was sent to a hospital. En route, he went into cardiac arrest, according to the mayor. When the teen got to the hospital, he was revived and kept alive for six hours. But, it was too late, the mayor said. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/teen-whose-death-may-be-linked-coronavirus-denied-care-not-n1170616
