Check out this stat from Worldometers:
CLOSED CASES -
Cases which had an outcome:
70,920 (93%) Recovered / Discharged
5,394 (7%) Deaths
That 7% rate has remained steady as the overall global numbers grow.
You could probably cut that rate in half if you consider all the undiagnosed people who must be out there, who thought they had a cold or a flu or an allergy attack, rode it out at home, and got better.
But still, a 3.5% death rate is way more than America’s Flu Bro (Rush) would like to believe. Also way more than the Swine Flu in America (about 0.3 percent, IIRC).
The stats I derive from the JHU CSSE site data have been between 7.2% and 5.7% deaths since 2/27.
Not a bad match for two separate data sets...
