SARS-COV-2 DISPARITY NUMBERS IN THE SEVEN MOST AFFECTED COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD

The whole world is being locked down but we only have this reports to base our future upon.

The 7 most infected countries in the world, with a data cut at this moment (data obtained March 21st, 2020 GMT-2) have these highlighted disparity numbers:

1) CHINA out of 80,957 cases, 87.87% recovered cases with 4.01% deaths (???)

2) ITALY out of 47,021 cases, 80.51% active cases with 8.57% deaths and 5.64% in critical conditions (???)

3) SPAIN out of 21,510 cases, 87.54% active cases with 5.07% deaths (???)

4) GERMANY out of 19,848 cases, 0.34% deaths with 98,75% active cases and 0.01% in critical conditions (???)

5) IRAN out of 19,644 cases, 34.44% recovered cases with 58.36% active cases, and does not inform how many are in critical conditions (???)

6) USA out of 18,839 cases, 98.07% active cases with 0.66% recovered cases (???)

7) FRANCE out of 12,612 cases, 86.16% active cases with 3.56% deaths, and 8.89% in critical conditions (???)

Several factors may play different and important role in the disparity found, such as: a) as virulence of the SARS-CoV-2 strain found in each country; b) effectiveness of social distancing; c) effectiveness of healthcare provided; d) effectiveness of contingency measures; e) moment when case, cases, cluster, clusters and boom started; f) validity (veracity) of transferred data to be tabled.

Truly difficult to track a profile when data is collected differently and when we do not have first hand data.
