    Based on the outcome of cases -recovery or death the fatality rate has now increased to 7%  as shown in the top table and the "outcome of cases" graph (further down on the page )  in the link below

    https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/coronavirus-cases/

    That fatality %  is around 3 times as high as the Spanish flue in 1918 however it is likely the Spanish flue fatalities were under reported in the less developed countries in 1918 according to recent research .
    Be interesting if  the USA will launch a class action on behalf of victims families against the Chinese Govt  once this pandemic passes .
