can science even calculate mutation
can we end up with a virus that reproduces fast enough and mutates fast enough and there is enough of it that it explodes out of control

>The Los Alamos study does not indicate that the new version of the virus is more lethal than the original. People infected with the mutated strain appear to have higher viral loads. But the study’s authors from the University of Sheffield found that among a local sample of 447 patients, hospitalization rates were about the same for people infected with either virus version.

So, as thought before, we're all going to get it and the death rate will be low but since the entire population will get it, the absolute death count will be higher than the flu. What's the point of placing the planet under house arrest again?
