SEAN HANNITY: The most at risk, and this is very important, are older people with underlying medical issues, the elderly. And people, by the way, that have compromised immune systems. That would be people that are getting chemotherapy, that are in need -- have some type of immune deficiencies. Healthy people generally, 99% recover very fast. Even if they contract it. And by the way, still, any deaths are tragic. We want everybody to live. Put it in perspective: 26 people were shot in Chicago alone over the weekend. I doubt you heard about it. You notice there's no widespread hysteria about violence in Chicago. And this has now gone on for years and years and years. By the way, Democratic-run cities, we see a lot of that.
