I can't give a source for this information. I got it from a travel blog about Paris. It gives the mortality rate for the virus and is supposedly based on statistics out of China from Feb 11. It clearly shows that age is a critical factor in the mortality rate of the disease. Take it for what it's worth, here it is.
Under 40 years old - .2%
People in their 40's - .4%
People in their 50's - 1.3%
People in their 60's - 3.6%
People in their 70's - 8%
People in their 80's - 15% (because the older you get the more likely you are to have a chronic disease)
Edit: I found the link to the above statistics. It's in French, but the link is

Here is another site with loads of stats.
