Mortality Analyses - Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Resource Center

For anyone thinking that the US is doing badly with the Covid-19 epidemic and believes fairy tales of how well the UK is doing: The US may be climbing up the statistic poles fast, and some states opening up far too early, but look at the top line of the bar chart "Mortality: Observed case-fatality ratio". And at the "Cases and mortality by country" table.

Mortality in the most affected countries

For the twenty countries currently most affected by COVID-19 worldwide, the bars in the chart below show the number of deaths either per 100 confirmed cases (observed case-fatality ratio) or per 100,000 population (this represents a country’s general population, with both confirmed cases and healthy people). Countries at the top of this figure have the most deaths proportionally to their COVID-19 cases or population, not necessarily the most deaths overall.
