Recovery numbers are very low since the illness seems to take a long time to resolve. It will take a while until the recovery numbers are easily analyzed.

For the 1099 patients in the study, 15 died, 9 recovered, 55 were discharged from the hospital, and 1029 remained in the hospital. So at this point the recovery rate data isn't very useful. Over a longer time span it will be more useful as a greater percentage of patients pass though the average time to resolution of the illness.

You can see that data in the paper below which reports on a patient population of about 1000 people in China.

Clinical characteristics of 2019 novel coronavirus infection in China

Published (before peer review) at medRxiv Here

There is a lot of other useful clinical data included in the paper.
