The 3 victims in Maryland are recovering in their 2nd weeks.
Most viral infections only last a few days, some a bit longer but if you catch a bacterial infection (mainly pneumonia) because of it, all bets are off.
Some virus came be latent and recur like Herpes, HIV and Hepatitis.
I do agree we have to give it some time to see what is really going on. But I would bet political histrionics is influencing about at least 95% of our current news cycle.
It takes a week or ten days, possibly 14 days from infection to symptoms.
Another week or two of symptoms.
At that point you either recover or need an ICU bed.
If you need an ICU bed it’s another week or two for mortality to kick in.
There are still a whole bunch of people in SK that are in the ICU and probably won’t make it.
We’ll what final mortality is in a cpl months. Dataset is way too small.
BTW, mortality stays low while your hospitals are able to treat you with ‘best care’. Once your hospitals get overrun it turns into a crap show.
That’s happening in Italy right now. They’re quarantining 1/6 of the country for this.
