Some Corona virus calculations.
March 2,2020

[link to gisanddata.maps.arcgis.com (secure)]

Current infected 89,254
Total dead 3,048
Total recovered 45,393
Total showing symptoms and getting treated 48,441

Some calcs.
3048 divided by 48,441 times 100 is 6.292 percent current kill rate.

This kill rate is more than 12 times "standard" flu.
Some standard flu types are :

H1N1 - Asian Influenza A Virus, Swine flu
H3N2 - Avian Influenza A Virus
H5N1 - Avian Influenza A Virus
H7N9 - Anhui Influenza Wildtype A Virus
RSV - Respiratory Syncytial Virus
Coxsacie Type B3 virus - Hand,Foot, and Mouth Disease
Cytomegalovirus - fever blisters and or jaw cancer.
SARS Corona virus

48,441 divided by 89,254 times 100 is 54.27 per cent.
Global health care system overloaded.

Assumption - A very high R0 factor of greater than 6.0
plugged into the population formula for the increase in virus will show
you the date of global infection.
Currently the virus doubles the people infected every 2.4 days.
This number can go up or down depending upon efforts.
Current world population is 7,768,183,780 from worldometers.
[link to www.worldometers.info (secure)]

7,768,183,780 times .006292 is 53,755,832.

Because the virus will build its own "fire break line" at some point
in time (it runs out of people to infect) and counter efforts are
being made by all or most nations, the number might be cut in half to only
26,877,916 dead.

The 1918 spanish flu killed about 20 to 50 million.
[link to www.history.com (secure)]


Finally, any vehicle (airplanes, boats, cars, trains) that has carried a infected active person is now a spreader of the infection.

How do you dis-infect the ventliation system of an airplane?
The next set of passengers to board the airplane will become infected when
the ventliation system is started.

Re: Some Corona virus calculations.
thanks op. in some ways, i agree with your post.
the main problem is the numbers we are being feed are not even close to true.

some many people not being tested... and relying on numbers from china, etc. so, that makes the math that much more difficult.

stay well cheers

Re: Some Corona virus calculations.
Seasonal Flu CFR is around 0.1% or 1 in 1000
Your calculations are roughly 63 X the kill rate of seasonal flu at 6.3 in 100.

BTW, I’m with you, get so tired of hearing CFR quoted in media as number of deaths over number of infected.

It is number of deaths over number of deaths+recovered.

Guess they think they can pull one over on everyone since most of the population has no idea how to do basic math.

Also, you can't say it has a 6% kill rate when it isn't killing 6% of people that get it. You can say that out of cases 100% resolved it has killed 6%, assuming those numbers are correct.

If on the first day of flu season 1 person died and 1 person recovered while 500 people are still considered sick,you wouldn't say that this year's flu has a 50% kill rate.

Re: Some Corona virus calculations.
It's just impossible to get these statistics until after the pandemic has run its course. I know we all want to know the death rate, for example, but how can we know when half the population that is tested is never hospitalized?

Some people catch the virus and ride it out at home, and they're never counted.

Others catch the virus and die from heart complications; they're never tested and not counted either.

How many people are walking around with the virus right now but are asymptomatic. Probably 10x or 100x more than the people that we know about.

So it's a worthy cause but I'd say it is impossible.

Your question of
" how can we know when half the population that is tested is never hospitalized? " is a good question.

The John Hopkins link shows 5 data sources,WHO,CDC,ECDC,NHC,DXY.

If the input data to the data bases is incorrect then of course the calculations will be incorrect.

Re: Some Corona virus calculations.
Why does the total dead + total recovered = total showing symptoms?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78319822


There is a delay time from the time a person gets infected with a test revealing the infection, and the time when a person shows the ill effects strong enough to seek hospital treatment.

People just do not say "I feel healthy so I am going to check into a hospital."
They usually wait until they feel really really sick.

So they can be walking around for a number of days, spreading the virus, and not even know it.

The 89,254 will have to pass through the phase of having recovered or having died in order to get a more accurate answer.

There is a book called "Chaos Making a new science" that came out in 1987
that explains a discovery made by a physicst named Mitchell Feignbaum.
[link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)]

It turns out that the chaos information shows up in almost everything;
next years ant population as a function of some driver like the number of sugar grains that the ants can eat; or of the way water drips from a source; or
the decay patterns in a radioactive element; or how your heart beats; or the spectral pattern found in starlight; and even the pattern of the stock market.

Feignbaum's discovery is here:
[link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)]

You can take his formula into a spreadsheet and plug the R0 value of the virus
(current best value of 6.0+) into the formula for the "f" function and see the number of days it will take for the virus to cover the world; IF and it is a BIG IF, the virus does not generate it own "self limiting fire break" to slow it rate of spread, or even stop it completely.

I sure hope that a vaccine can be produced in time.

Re: Some Corona virus calculations.
There are probably some number of people (could be very large, e.g, > than the 89K, maybe not) who were/are infected and will never become a data point - don't really get sick or too sick, etc.

I.e., it's to be hope the numerator in your Kill Rate is much larger, making the real rate much lower.

Of course, maybe there are a number of deaths out there, even > 3048, that have not been captured in the data for various reasons.

Re: Some Corona virus calculations.
Op your math is off. It’s 530,000,000 dead at 6.2%. Assuming everyone on earth catches it which won’t happen. There’s an extra zero in your math. Numbers look legit other than that. My assumption is always that communist countries like China who are built on manufacturing would never go to the lengths they have gone to unless the numbers here are at least what they are in reality. The trouble doesn’t really come until the country’s healthcare system becomes overloaded.

You are correct.

I said
89254 divided by 48,441 times 100 is 54.27 per cent.
when I meant to say
48,441 divided by 89,254 times 100 is 54.27 per cent.

The number says that either 54 per cent show no signs of illness, although they test positive, or the hospitals are at max bed capacity. Most of the number comes from China
so maybe they are stacked up outside waiting to get into a hospital.

At any rate in about 3 to 4 weeks a better picture of the
problem should show up based upon the virus rate of spread.
