What caught my eye is that in Hubei province, which we all imagine as a zombie apocalypse now, only ~110 out of every 100,000 got infected, and at this point the new infection rate is going down.
Which is quite amazing, given that the virus was spreading there for weeks (at least) without anyone being aware of anything before all the mess was uncovered and announced.
- onlyrealcuzzo 7y agoI would hope the rate is decreasing if everyone has been forcefully quarantined for almost a month! If growth was still exponential under these conditions, we would be very very screwed.
- jobigoud 7y ago> only ~110 out of every 100,000 got infected I don't think they have done any random sampling in the testing. If you only have mild symptoms (could be it or something else) it's best to stay home rather than risk catching it at the hospital.
