When the newest strain of the Coronavirus struck China at the end of 2019 and later, in early next season, started spreading to other countries at a extremely fast rate the world hardly knew anything concerning the virus and watched helplessly as COVID-19 created havoc all around, posing the worst ever crisis faced by humanity. While the months rolled by scientists, researchers and medical fraternity the world over joined hands in studying, analyzing the virus and started picking out life-saving repurposed drugs and development of effective vaccines. Till now, there has been no proven cure for the virus, but the repurposed drugs and the improvements in healthcare infrastructure have significantly contributed towards reducing the fatality rate cambodia prince chen zhi, enabling patients to recoup in increasing numbers and containing the condition in a variety of worst affected countries. We shall discuss here some positive developments that basically are pointers to a possible conquest by humankind over the killer virus.

With the total amount of Coronavirus infected folks of the globe crossing 15 million, over 9 million has recovered thus registering a recovery rate of over 60 percent. In certain countries or regions, the recovery rates have crossed the 70% mark. With this specific the fatality rates are decreasing all around: a vast most of the countries have succeeded in keeping the rates below 5%; the worst affected countries, mostly in Europe, that showed fatality rates in excess of 10% as well as 15% have by now more or less controlled the spread of the virus and accordingly have successfully neutralized the death rate; in USA, the topmost country with regards to total infections, the alarming fatality rate of over 5% has fall now to 3.7% now, even although the country seems to truly have a second wave with many new cases each day; the 2nd country with regards to total amount of infections, Brazil, the same trend is visible, and in the next worst affected country, India, the fatality rate has fall from over 3% to 2.43% at the moment with recovered patients touching nearly 65%. The sole country showing a death rate above a shocking 25% is Yemen; however, at the moment new cases are not rising exponentially there. Countries like Australia, New Zealand, Iceland, Jamaica, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Nepal, Puerto Rico, Singapore and Russia and others have registered very low fatality rates which range from significantly less than 1% to 2%. Most significantly for Planet Earth the global death rate has become 4.19% which, hopefully, would reduce further in near future.

Some researchers mention a distinction between the specific amount of infections and the reported or confirmed ones by which they would like to say the amount of deaths reported might be underestimated. In several countries like in the United Kingdom and also in China, actually, fatality figures had been revised upwardly. This issue had been politicized in many states of India with respective political opposition alleging under-reporting in the numbers of deaths, and in most of the states the state government too had revised the figures upwardly. Besides, the factor of co-morbidity has also created anomalies in reported deaths. Regardless, it's not significantly contributed to a rising fatality rate in the concerned nations or regions.

Factors adding to a reducing fatality rate and an increasing recovery rate are, even as we mentioned earlier, as a result of the repurposed life-saving drugs like Favipiravir, Dexamethasone, Remdesivir, Tocilizumab etc. and a most effective method called Plasma Therapy, tried successfully in India and other countries mostly on severe under-ventilation patients. And then, the positive developments on the vaccine front.
