OK. I just used the Deaths / ( deaths + recoveries ) formula:
Hubei province: 780/2219 = 35.1%
Other provinces combined: 32/1256 = 2.5%
So Hubei has 14 times of death rate as other provinces combined.
Hubei province: 780/2219 = 35.1%
Other provinces combined: 32/1256 = 2.5%
So Hubei has 14 times of death rate as other provinces combined.
In Hubei, the epicentre, there is an extreme shortage of hospital beds. Most people are sent away, even with severe symptoms. This is why the death rate is higher.
You’re definitely onto something interesting here.
