last 6 deaths in HK broke pattern, they were not elderly; but were young. The disease is pretty puzzling. One mystery is why Canada has had 10 deaths out of 100 cases, and the US has had no deaths at all. Here is the list of cumulative statistics by country: who.int Here's a map by country: who.int And here's the epidemic curve so far: who.int (Note that I think this graph is somewhat distorted by delayed reporting of cases, particularly from mainland China). Here's the Hong Kong curve: who.int Note that the right hand side of the graph (early April) will still rise some as new cases are diagnosed and their date of origin is determined.
