Of the world's 263,190 concluded cases so far, 80 percent recovered -- 20 percent did not (via toofab)
In possibly the most alarming stat to emerge from the pandemic so far, 210,838 of these patients have either recovered or been discharged, while 52,611 have died -- a mortality rate of 20 percent.
While the world struggles to stop the spread of the virus, analysts struggle to pull usable statistics from international figures. As renowned biostatistician Professor Sheila Bird told TooFab, international comparison of diagnosed/confirmed cases can be troublesome, "as access to COVID-antigen testing is highly variable between countries.
As for ongoing active cases, the breakdown is a little less grim: of the 744,721 active COVID-19 cases, 95 percent are in mild condition, while 5 percent are considered serious or critical.
