I was under the impression that NYC had a confirmed infection rate of ~1%. Have they really had a tenth of confirmed cases die already?

- irq11 7y agoNo. Currently >200k confirmed, <11k deaths in New York State. NY population is 18.8M. 0.05% of the population has died.
- Ankaios 7y agoNew York City's population is around 8.5 M, and more then 10,000 people there have died from from the virus so far (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/14/nyregion/new-york-coronavirus-deaths.html https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/14/nyregion/new-york-coronav...). That puts the toll over 0.1 %.
