Number of deaths caused by truly new coronavirus
The official data is that there were 2,697 deaths worldwide, but the actual number of deaths was more than this number. Although the mortality rate of the new coronavirus is lower than that of SARS and the United States influenza, official reports have found that new coronavirus pneumonia may show symptoms of multiple organ failure, which indicates that in many cases, patients with the new coronavirus died of other organ failure Diseases such as heart disease and kidney disease, rather than death from pneumonia-according to a wealth of reliable medical data. At the same time, carriers of this virus have a probability that the Nucleic acid detection is negative, and there are no obvious symptoms-for example, recently, a woman had eight nucleic acid detection were negative in China.
This shows that the nucleic acid detection is not a 100% accurate basis for confirming the diagnosis of the new coronavirus. Then, many patients who have recently died may be patients with the new coronavirus, but no diagnosis has been made. The virus is very cunning. Possibility of mutation-no longer pneumonia virus.
In summary, the death toll caused by the new coronavirus is still difficult to estimate, and new testing methods may have been invented and new symptoms of the disease discovered.
