Current deaths in the USA - 695 Current recovered - 370 Cases without outcome - about 52,300. Just under 1200 of those are serious cases
Take a look at all of the graphs. Total cases, total deaths, new cases per day, new deaths per day. All those graphs are on linear scales - but the values being graphed are not rising linearly.
The number of “cases” is without a doubt higher than 54,000. As that number goes up, the fatality rate goes down. There’s 54,000 positive test results.
Right, and only those showing serious symptoms are being tested. These same experts said that the majority of those infected will show little, or no, symptoms.
