There are nearly 30 million confirmed cases of COVID-19 in almost all
countries and regions worldwide, and more than 900,000 deaths as of September 2020.
Almost all of the cases are over 30 years old, and deaths are mostly over 50 years old.
The rate of fatality varies greatly by population and geography. Males are represented
slightly more than females in confirmed patients in many series, but male
predominance is more remarkable in deaths. While there is an increasing trend in
deaths since the beginning of March, there is a plateau and a slight downslope after
mid-April.
Provided with the progress of the disease in the world, it is seen that the number of
cases continues to rise and break records, but deaths do not increase in the same way.
Although many countries have a drive for a premature ‘normalization’, an immature
decision of normalization has caused a surge of newly diagnosed cases and deaths in
many countries.
