The panic is only because there is no vaccine or cure and they are worried too many infections will overrun Health Services worldwide.

I think those stats are based on the total citizens in each country Annis vs those that have sadly died, not the number of confirmed cases. I think the true survival rate based on confirmed cases globally with a final outcome is about 85% globally, that number has improved by about 7% in the last fortnight so grounds for optimism. Hope you are staying well.

That's the case, massive majorities in those countries haven't had the disease. Less than 0.5% have had it in the Czech Republic and less than 1% in Hungary for instance. Will be interesting when they start testing to see how many of had it in the UK, Italy, Spain and France and compare that with countries that have faired better. Nobodies dealing with the virus very well, its just likely that some are much better at keeping it out.

If that was the case in the UK 65.65Million and 33186 deaths = 0.0005055 have died so the not died from Corona rate would be
99.9994945%. Over 80% are over the age of 75 with serious life-shortening health conditions.
At least 10% of the UK population have had it (my assumption from the various reports) then with 33186 deaths that would be a death rate of 0.00505499 so the not died from corona figure would be 99.9949501%
Basically if your under 40 and not fat as feck, with no underlying health conditions you've got a minimal chance of dying of covid 19%.
Survival figures won't know all the people who have had it, but 230,000 have tested positive, so based on that is would change to 98.56%, but everyone knows that would be a wrong assumption.

Based on 10% of population getting as you stated and a 33186 died Is just over 0.5 death rate who have had it not not 0.005

I stand corrected I definitely can't multitask, we really need to know how many have had it, then we will really know!
Roche has a test which is 99.8 accurate in saying when someone has the virus, and hopefully that will give us all a better idea![]()

There's a diagnostic company based in Pencoed that have test that can determine if you've got it and whether you've had it in the same test. They're claiming 100% specificity - dont quite understood the term. Its been in production for a couple of weeks but its an American company and at the moment they're all going across the Atlantic. I understand they are likely to be going into Welsh hospitals soon. We absolutely need to have a better idea of how many have had it. Proper sampling like they do with the election and they'd get a very good idea out of 100k tests.
