1 in 17. That’s the rough number of people dying from COVID-19
Just a little update for you COVID-19 thinkers. Whether you think it’s the apocalypse, or just a fly-by-night virus that will disappear any minute, please take a minute to read this. Just a little over three weeks ago we had 15 reported cases and 0 deaths in the United States. We now have over 550 cases and 22 deaths.

The mortality rate of the flu is less than .5% :: The mortality rate of COVID-19 is hanging around 6% globally atm. To break that number down, it’s roughly 1 in 17. Do you know 16 other people? Friends, family? The United States went from 15 cases to the 8th most infected country. We are accumulating 100+ cases a day now, and that number is certain to climb.

Stop telling people, and yourselves, that it’s just a cold or flu. Stop telling people to just wash their hands. Start taking precautions for yourselves, and being conscious of your surroundings. If you feel like you have symptoms, stay home. You could literally be the cause of death for someone’s child, parent or grandparent. 1 in 17 are dying from this.

Re: 1 in 17. That’s the rough number of people dying from COVID-19
the number is that high because they are not testing anybody. by the end of next week thousands upon thousands will be tested.

watch italy, they seem to have accurate numbers

It's closer to 1 in 5 for those over age 75.

Ok. And in China where thousands upon thousands have been tested and they are still reporting a 4% mortality rate?

mortality rate and case fatality rate are 2 different things.

Case fatality rate is the number of infected divided by the number of fatalities by a given disease.

Mortality rate is the percentage of people who die, divided by the total number of the population of a nation.

there are two things that can happen:

* mild dose - zero dead people

* strong dose - people goto hospital, 25% die
- if people don't go to hospitali, 99% die???

Thank you for that important clarification, Dr. Jake!

Now..... back to the discussion of the average COVID19 mortality rate, OP...

Re: 1 in 17. That’s the rough number of people dying from COVID-19
if the true numbers in the USA is correct lets say 20 has died out of 250 million so that is what?

there is 1.5 billion in china and how many has died 90?

in one year cancer kills over 2.5 million flu alone kills 15 to 46 thousand a year in the USA

now if we take poor health related prior to getting the virus and age it drops down to what 0.00347

You do understand the concept of exponential growth don't you?

3,831 people have died as to now (according to the data we have)

4000 by tomorrow

and yes only 110,000 have been infected.(according to the data we have)

1 in 27 have died of those that are known infected however

there are thousands that are probably positive that have not been tested.

To answer your edit, Italy is still reporting a 5% mortality rate.
 Quoting: GhostProphet


but they are now considering an age limit for ICU admission due to space shortage...

while 10% of all positive cases have been requiring intensive care (due to hypoxic respiratory failure).

i'm not sure why ppl keep forgetting the end mortality rate heavily depends on limited healthcare capacity

as well as the reinfection rate due to multiple strains spreading.
