Worth mentioning that, with China/Korea, now France deploys this drug to frontlines, in the best case scenario, which is the South Korea case, the death rate still sets at 1%, so still 10 times more lethal than flu.
We all want a miracle, but we need to be cautious about it.
I am more curious right now as whether this drug can work as a preventative medication for high risk individual to lower the chance for getting infected, TBH. That will help the medical stuff greatly.
- pombrand 7y agoSouth Korea is at 0.6% CFR, the true IFR will be lower than this again due to false negatives and biased testing against symptomatic people. South Korea will max end up with a IFR of 0.2-0.5%, 2 to 5 times worse than the flu.
