Another thing I would like to see reported is the percentage rates of deaths to confirmed cases. Although the US has higher numbers of both, the death rate is one of the lowest, 3.47% last time I did the math. But I guess this is good news, so it’s best not to broadcast it. SSMH |
Haven't seen anything about death rates here either. But they do announce how many have recovered each day.
It is starting to get real for us now. My husband knows two people that have Corona. Before it was just statistics.
