That would only happen if 100% of the population becomes infected at once. But when 60% has had the virus there will be so much immunity that the virus won't be able to spread anymore. So 10% mortality may happen in countries without healthcare, but not in modern countries.

Like Italy/Spain? When the system is overwhelmed death rates rise.
The reports from wuhan tell a story of difficult recovery. Young people 2 months recovered can't walk up stairs. 30% reduced lung function. If 60% get it that's a huge amount of people..
