No...so far it is 147 recovered vs 275 dead or 62 percent(total resolved cases) IN THE USA. We have 18390 active cases without resolution yet with 62 of those in critical shape. Increased testing is distorting our numbers but as we watch increased hospitalizations for sudden onset respiratory distress suddenly uptick beyond what is way above normal even for flu this time of year, that will help clear away the fog.
Look at these numbers and look for the charts for resolved cases vs deaths as percentages...the death rate in the world is running 11 percent compared with 89 percent recovered. If you manually take out the fake numbers for China and the death rate climbs to 28 percent vs 72 percent recovered else where. Near 30 percent. If one surmises that this plague should ever hit nearly 8 billion of all persons on the earth with 30 percent rate holding...then you have a Revelation’s style plague of 1/3 being wiped out.
I don’t think this one will ever get to 1 billion but even 100 million with a 4 percent final mortality rate is still 4 million people with exhausted health resources all over the world as many survivors will have lingering issues and shortened lifespans because of their illness. Some nations will weather it better than others but Italy looks to be a mess.

We have 19,622 confirmed cases. Of those confirmed cases, 261 have died. IOW 1.3% of the confirmed cases have died. That’s what we KNOW. Last Sunday, it was 2%.
