1/5 With today's numbers, these are the expectations:
H1N1 - 20-40 per 100000 infected *
SARS - 11000 per 100000 inf.
MERS - 29700 per 100000 inf.
Coronavirus - 2076 per 100000 inf.
2/5 The assumptions:
- Everyone infected to date lives.
- Numbers after 8K infected don't change much modeling 2009 A(H1N1) outbreak behavior.
3/5 * Final mortality of H1N1 is just an estimation the latest actual measurement by the CDC shows 1250 per 100000 infected by week 31
4/5 ** If we assume same kind of behavior we should expect mortality around 50 - 100 per 100000 infected
5/5 *** Unless of course, I missed the mark on the math, no one is infallible.
