I was so bored the other day I calculated random mortality rates for the coronavirus using the figures from Worldometer. They claim they get their stats from the official authority in each country, so their figures are only as accurate as those reports. The figures change hourly, of course, but here are my latest calculations as of 9 pm New York time, Thursday, April 2:

World death rate 5.24%
MS Zaandam 22.22%
Italy 12.07
Spain 9.23
France 9.11
Netherlands 9.11
Indonesia 9.5
UK 8.66
Egypt 6.71
Belgium 6.59
Iran 6.26
Sweden 5.53
Romania 4.2
China 4.07
Philippines 4.06
Brazil 4.03
Denmark 3.63
Greece 3.43
Switzerland 2.85
India 2.83
Mexico 2.69
Ireland 2.55
USA 2.48
Japan 2.48
Turkey 1.96
South Korea 1.69
Diamond Princess 1.54
Canada 1.53
Austria 1.42
Germany 1.31
Norway 0.97
Russia 0.85
Israel 0.53
Australia 0.47


Just a few of the 204 countries and two cruise ships currently affected by the pandemic. These figures may be outdated in an hour, but it's still an interesting snapshot in time. ☜(ˆ▿ˆc)
