The stats came from yesterday’s European daily status report, which were the most current as of the time I posted (and where all of these other trackers get their numbers). I see that the numbers on the same link have now updated to today’s stats, and there have been 2 deaths and 1139 cases in Germany. It doesn’t change the point I was making in the slightest, which is that Germany has a death rate far, far below 1%. Did you even bother to click the link?

"Always assume positive intent." Yes, I did. Did you?

Your stats are more out of date than this. There are now more than zero deaths in Germany, and presumably the death toll will grow substantially from here, like it has in every other country with COVID-19 infections.

  You clearly didn’t bother reading the words in the post you’re replying to: 2 deaths in Germany as of today. These are the official European statistics from today. The ones from my original post were the official numbers from yesterday. These numbers are not out of date.

    zeit.de reported 2 deaths a day ago already. You are using outdated sources and are unwilling to use newer ones for whatever reason.

      They’re the official government source. Whatever you are using is pulling data directly from them.

        OK, good to know, though they are probably lagging a bit with information for the public.

    Yeah, the numbers from yesterday are out of date compared to the numbers from today, by exactly one day. What part of this aren't you getting??

      They numbers are updated daily, and there was an update between when I posted, and when you made your comment. The source I posted always points to the most current official numbers. You should read it, instead of arguing.

>It doesn’t change the point I was making in the slightest, which is that Germany has a death rate far, far below 1%. The death rate is calculated by dead / (dead + recovered). The there are 2 deaths in Germany and 18 recoveries. That's 10%. This is probably skewed higher right now since they're not testing people with only mild symptoms.
