If the mortality rate is 25%, then the probability that none of you will die is .75 x .75 x .75 x .75 = .32 or 32%.

The probability that one or more of you will die is 68%.

That would only be if you actually got the disease... LOL! Otherwise, if it were 68% for all of us the environmentalists would be thrilled as it would help get the world population down to 1 billion where they think it should be!!!
