Quality of care after the fact is the obvious one. The patients of the cruise ship weren’t being treated by a flooded hospital system. Quarantine on the ship is less than perfect, but it’s still better than the efforts made by many governments which was to do nothing until things got out of hand.
What are these everything else’s? By far the best predictor of patient mortality has been age. What else is it about the Diamond Princess population that would come even close, even in sum, to the predictive power of their age?
