CDC: Possible ‘community spread’ coronavirus case in Bay Area

29 to 40 year old Chinese doctors have already died. If it was really only 0.2/0.4% for them, those events would have been extremely unlikely.

Also, in Iran it is concerning how much higher the CFR is there; which are leading some to think the virus may be exhibiting different behavior there.

and yes, the severe/critical case rate is somewhere around 14%-18%, which means you need hospitalization.

if you don't trust the chinese data, the data in south korea and italy is very trustworthy, and looks just as bad on those too.

Do you mean the Chinese doctors who were in prison for revealing the coronavirus to the public?

I imagine their health was terrible just from a few weeks living in a Chinese prison.
