Virus: bad news, good news, good news?
1. Reported cases grew faster day over day and stayed at same
growth rate over a 3 day period; first time this has happened since
3 day growth rate started falling on Jan 28.
2. Infections reported outside China still low and not
growing rapidly.
3. Recoveries exceed deaths and deaths/infections down to
2.1%
Am aware of many estimates of much higher numbers than
reported here; for example, one study suggests 75,000 infections
based on modelling impact of each infected person infecting 2.6
others.
No updates yet today - this data as on 11pm Feb 1st from
website Matt shared.
The death rate may be low, but since the virus is new to humans
and can transmit during the incubation period, a lot more people
can get infected will have to wait to see how this plays out.
