12 dead from the DP. 1 on board, 1 evacuated to the US, 1 evacuated to Canada.

And somewhere they found another 5 cases for a total of 712.

597 recovered, leaving 103 cases unresolved.

The DCR for the DP is 1.7%, the current CFR is 2%. The final CFR will be somewhere in between those numbers, I expect, but if all 103 were to die it would be way higher (16%), and if none of the 13 die it drops to 1.7%. That 1.7% is, mathematically, as low as it can get given the reported numbers.

"12 dead from the DP. 1 on board, 1 evacuated to the US, 1 evacuated to Canada."

12 dead from the DP. 10 on board, 1 evacuated to the US, 1 evacuated to Canada.

My '0' key sticks sometimes, sorry.

I don't consider the Diamond Princess to be a valid sample for death rates. The older age cohorts of the passengers were too large relative to the total passengers.

I do consider the Diamond Princess to be a valid but rough sample for the ratio of asymptomatic to symptomatic infected - at least as many asymptomatic as symptomatic. IMO that is the only valid virus statistic we can pull from the ship.

Wonder what portion of those DP unresolved are currently on ventilators ?
