4260 active cases and (12) TWELVE (twelve, I said twelve) of th are serious?

.28169 out of 100 cases are serious.

What the f are we doing


At this rate, if we had 100 million cases, that would be 281k serious cases. That would overwhelm our hospitals? We have 800,000 hospital beds. If 2/3 are full already with critical patients, that leaves 266k beds. So we'd have a shortage of 15,000 beds if we had 100 million infected at the same time.
We can't cover that with makeshift hospitals?

Ignore that number. It’s stayed relatively constant while the death count continues to rise.

I don't trust these US Serious case numbers. They are abnormally low. I've seen too many reports in different places talking about critical patients to believe there are only 12 serious cases in the US.

Serious Case %'s from around the world (As of right now):
Worldwide: 6.94%
Italy: 8.02%
UK: 1.39%
France: 6.18%
Germany: .03% Seems very low as well
Spain: 3.09%
Japan: 5.66%

80% of the infected will not require hospitalization.
