We are a few weeks behind SKorea.
SKorea is close to China, had a lot of traffic from China.
And in particular had a huge 5000 member cult church that had members who had gone to Wuhan and they spread it in the church.
Our case fatality rate is higher than SKorea. Ours is 1.84%, where theirs is 0.91%. But that’s because we had a nursing home hit and SKorea has a younger population. Most of our cases are too new to compare to SKorea yet.
But we can use SKorea to project what will happen here.
