On the elderly infections: https://www.wired.com/story/why-the-coronavirus-hit-italy-so...

On antibiotics, aside from secondary infections, there’s a paper out talking about azithromycin: “Our preliminary results also suggest a synergistic effect of the combination of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin. Azithromycin has been shown to be active in vitro against Zika and Ebola viruses [20-22] and to prevent severe respiratory tract infections when administrated to patients suffering viral infection [23].”

Not sure of they used azithromycin but would’ve been good to see that verified.
