Looking at the chart, I doubt that the worldwide rate is .6 percent. Simply way too many countries with much high rates that the US of A.
The chart you link to is only dealing with confirmed cases.
It has been known for some time that the CFR is around 0.5% or less if you take into account the antibody survey data meaning people who had it but never had contact with the medical system and recovered without being counted as a confirmed case.
The same CDC that shut down researchers in Washington who were testing for the virus in February?
Never happened.
Researchers in Washington wanted to go back and test samples collected for a study on influenza for antibodies to SARS-CoV-2. They were told not to do so because the test they planned to use was not certified. That was sorted out and the samples were tested. No one was "shut down".
Day to day in the US, scamvid-19 is getting spread around to thousands upon thousands, most probably do not even know they got it.
The total deaths creep-up slowly, while at the same time the number of infected keeps
soaring up and up.
Our Mohave county in AZ is now down from 10% to about a 5% death rate as they do more testing. Ours is one of the poorest, poorest health and least educated in the country. Early on we hardly tested anyone unless they were really sick. And they tended to be high risks to begin with. Thus the relatively high death rate.
These numbers vary widely based on locale and timing within the overall pandemic.
I had it in March. Sick as a dog for a week. I gave it to my wife and it nearly killed her. If I wasn't a doc, no doubt she'd be dead. She is still recovering.
I gave her Plaquenil + zpak + vit d + vit c + zinc, by the way. Before it all became a political football.

From what I have heard those things are still being given....they just aren't a cure all and not some magic cureall.
That's the issue, Trump and his supporters implying that there is a cure for the virus.....you might get better or you might not. Ask the broadway star who died, Herman Cain,, etc.
I'm glad your wife is feeling better.
