Mea culpa, lol.
Nah, it was a good question and deserved a quick and accurate answer.
As alarming as the 3.6% number is it's one heck of a lot better than some of the early fatality rates. Back in April the world wide rates of completed cases were in the 20s!
Scary high and approaching civilization collapsing levels.
We, as a species* have made amazing progress in fighting the spread and finding effective treatments!
