Outside of Hubei province it does not appear that the case fatality rate will be greater than 1%.

Mortality rate is currently over 3%; those over 50 are *significantly* more likely to die from Covid 19. https://www.yahoo.com/news/confirmed...020009251.html |

I wish the media would at least get the terminology correct. That's a chart of case fatality rates - not mortality rates.

Im not trying to be mean here when I say this, but a large number of the workers at nursing homes aren't the sharpest tools in the shed. Im hoping that the workers are getting the necessary training and education, so that they know the symptoms of the virus and just how much worse it is for the elderly. I know some people will think "well I have the coronavirus and I don't feel that bad, so I should be fine to go to work because there is no way this could actually kill someone" and then will go to work and basically do the complete opposite of what they should be doing to keep it from spreading. |

Well if they really are only testing people with the most severe symptoms then the number could be much higher.
Conspiracy theory time, they aren't testing everyone to keep the % that has died higher. If they tested everyone with mild symptoms and there was a couple hundred more infected that had no chance of dying, then the death rate is significantly lower and less people pay attention. |
