That's not how that works. recovered over dead would be a better measure of death rate. you can't count people who are active, you don't know if they will be in the dead or recovered column.

3% number is in error from failing to set-up the problem correctly. Of those infections that had a result (lived or died), 91% lived and 9% died. Therefore there is currently a 9% survival rate.

I see your points. The 9% reported by that website is what has happened rather than what may happen. The media reported a 2% death rate when the virus became news in January but apparently they were basing that on the total cases rather than closed cases?

:thumbsup: That's the good news, the bad news is it could take several months to test for effectiveness and safety before release to the public.

Unfortunately the drugs we have to treat hysteria are mostly sedatives...and IMO in a bad case scenario we will see more cases of hysteria than we will the actual virus...

I predict more auto accidents/injuries/deaths if the virus spreads in the US...do to prescription drug DUIs...
