How does COVID-19 compare to other recent viruses?

Experts say Wuhan is milder than other illnesses in the COVID-19 family, such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (sars) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (mers). But it is still deadly dangerous. COVID-19 has an estimated mortality rate of 3.4% but it could be a lot lower than that as milder cases of infection are not likely tested.

The main problem with fighting COVID-19 is its infection rate which is estimated to be higher than the other recent viruses. COVID-19 has two or three times the transmission rate compared to the flu and the case fatality rate for COVID-19 is around 30 times higher than the flu. Here’s how it compares to other more serious viruses:

Infection rates

COVID-19 has the highest infection rate, however it could also be much lower due to milder cases of COVID-19 infection going unreported. This stat will become more accurate over time. The graph shows that it is similar to sars.

Here is the mortality rate of recent viruses

Look at Mers, I never realised how deadly that was.

Statistics for different viruses

Imagine if the first reported cases in China were not suppressed by the regime. It could have been contained like mers.

 

Mortality stats by age for Covid-19

Like all initial stats, as time progresses we will get more accurate data on COVID-19 which could change what is currently being reported. For this reason, I also didn’t bother quoting the sources for the data.

    White House trade adviser Peter Navarro told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) essentially ruined America’s economy in just two months with their handling of the coronavirus outbreak in Wuhan.

    “We know that patient zero in China was about mid-November. It was in Wuhan. We know that ground zero had the P-4 weapons lab, where the virus likely came from. For the next two months, we know that China hid the virus from the world behind the shield of the World Health Organization,” Navarro said. “And, as they did that, they sent gleaming passenger jets from China, not into the rest of China from Wuhan, but to places like New York and Milan, seeding the world with what would become a pandemic.”

    Shutting borders was racist because Political Correctness. Trump did it – racist. But then Jacinda had to be racist or die from the virus so she was forced to choose racism. This is the reason for the delay.

    T8…..I to believe it was here probably by Nov or Dec also. It has definitely hurt our economy thats for sure. But it also has taken a toll on our already large national debt, and the democratic party wants to give away another three trillion, to add to our 20 some odd trillion debt we already have.  This could be just the beginning of not only us but the whole worlds economic crash. That will take place as God brings down the great BABYLOIAN SYSTEM OF RULE IN THIS WORLD. as Rev 18,  shows.

    Peace and love to you and yours. ………gene

    I think you will find that the poverty that an economic crash will cause will be way more intolerable. And China could start invading lands taking advantage of that situation.

    A senator recently said he thinks China let the virus out because if they didn’t, then they would have fallen behind the rest of the world.

    This way we all fall and they don’t become disadvantaged in comparison. Further, because of their dictatorial powers, they might come out of this thing stronger than America and Europe.

    T8, and Miia….Thing is,  it’s not just the cov19, but the great national debts that nearly all nations have,  it’s completely out of control in so many nations including ours . The US has over 22 trillion bebt,  that does not include nearly 120 trillion of personal debts of people in our country. We have become vertual slaves to those debts.  Things are economically very bad all over the world also,  a calaps is emanate, no economy can sustain soundness by keep going further and further into debt as we and other countries also are doing.

    I believe the kingdom of God  and the return of Jesus our lord, may be a lot closer then people think. We are in a prime position for the total claps of this BABLONIAN WORLD SYSTEM OF RULE.

    Peace and love to you and yours. ……..gene

    It seems New Zealand has beaten Covid-19. No new cases for a few days now. The odd case might pop up, but they are always from known clusters. It is possible that we may never see another case here.

    Gene, if all countries are in debt, by whom are they in debt too? Who is the debt collector?

    Coronavirus may have been a ‘cell-culture experiment’ gone wrong
