South Korea has done most extensive testing. So i feel more confident of the numbers. If we go by their numbers total cases is 9583 and total fatality is 152. This puts case fatality ratio of just under 1.5% and total serious ill is 1%. This puts the number close to less than common flu. With this d...

My guess is that mortality rate in developed nations for death/infected is 1% while mortality rate for death/symptomatic patients is 5%. Some UK studies are claiming that 90% of deaths take place in patients who would have died even without coronavirus within 1 year due to other medical reasons. . ...

has anyone come across any research paper (not blogs/news/articles) on effect of lockdown on psychology of people? i believe this will leave a big scar on humanity after Corona virus issue is over the whole wold will be a different place to be in.

Apparently the Chinese virus has almost the same viral load in a asymptomatic person, compared to one with symptoms. And nose has more load than mouth. So looks like most of the spread is done by people sneezing and thinking it is due to dust. No one has reported sneezing as a major symptom. Top 3 ...

Guys, i was wondering how did they cone to conclusion of 21 days? Is it 14 days and 7 days as a factor of safety? Or was there any tradeoff or other logic.

Ok. So the Worldometer site shows that current as of 3/23/2020, total cases = 379080 globally with 16524 deaths. What is bothering me is that the %age of deaths in the total number of closed cases (260133) has been gently creeping up over the last 5-6 days. I noticed it was only about 10%, 3 or 4 d...

Again if drugs are even partially effective then 500 deaths per day, 50,000 beds and 5,000 ventilators. Which is well within our current capacity.

Guys, is Wuhan still in lockdown condition? If so then how long rest of world needs to be? Can we afford a long time shutdown?
This will have a toll on economy. So instead of dieing due to corona we will be killed by economy.
