Click on the US, 37 dead Vs 8 recovered.

I hope I'm interpreting it wrongly.

2100+ have it in the US with 47 deaths. How is that 75%?

Case Fatality Rates vary from country to country. 3-6% is often quoted. However, in Italy currently:

17,600 cases
1,233 dead
1,328 critical (unfortunately most of these cases will be fatal)
CFR = 15%

Thats because the only thing they should be trusted with managing is an Italian restaurant, someone else should be responsible for governing their country

Italians couldn't organise a root in a brothel, since the end of WWII they've had 61 different governments in 75-odd years. The first step was they tried to ban family visits to prisons to keep it out of their prison system and 20+ prisons went on riots killing 6 people and there were fights between their family and the prison security.

Not only that but Italians and those of us with the heritage greet the opposite sex by doing the kiss on both cheeks so there is a lot of close contact between strangers.

I would suggest that is not quite right either

I would look at resolved cases where an outcome has been determined - so recovered or otherwise

At the moment that would make it closer to 45%

China (wuhan) is sitting at 5%

I'm calling BS on China's figures, as if they'd be reporting correctly.

Also keeping in mind that China also has the ability to control its citizens to a much higher degree than any Western democracy.

As for Italy, and the gereralisations of Italy being made my Franco - whilst they might appeal and raise a smile are utter garbage. The Northern part of Italy is very modern, wealthy and with a very good health system - it is being overwhelmed. I have relatives who live adjacent to Northern Italy and it is grim over there.
