Odds of Dying from COVID-19 vs other Coronaviruses
What are the odds of dying from COVID-19 compared to other coronaviruses? This is a common question I get asked both from my patients as well as comments on my YouTube videos. The odds of dying from COVID-19 have been well established but what about for other coronaviruses. There are 7 different human coronaviruses some of which cause the common cold and others have caused outbreaks such as MERS, SARS and of course COVID-19.
I will review the current knowledge on these coronaviruses and compare the current COVID-19 pandemic with other coronavirus infections.
