February 24 2020 Coronavirus Update

in china •  5 years ago 

Numbers wise CoVid-19 as coronavirus is known as now has

infected at least 79,360
Killed at least 2,619

But many more have recovered 24,963 recorded so far.

I'm scared about what happens if a country doesn't try to control the spread. Virus would be even more global.

If the truth was known and all people with the virus came forward for testing instead of staying at home there could be over 150k cases and if China recorded deaths or tested dead bodies the death count would likely be over 10k.

This website is still likely to cross the 100k infection mark by mid march. I expected it would be by the end of February but that's unlikely now
