As the coronavirus outbreak has been spreading increasing, we have been concerned and worried about the rising death toll. But there is some good news about the coronavirus when we look at its recovery rate. The recovery rate of the Covid-19 has also been increasing.
According to John Hopkins University, since the time the flu-like illness was reported first in December, more than 50,000 people globally have bounced back from the infection.
According to the university, more than 51,000 people have recovered, out of the 95,748 total cases reported so far. A vast majority of people who recovered are in China, where the virus originated.
The deadly virus has now spread to more than 70 countries apart from China.
In India, 3 infected patients recovered, In Iran, 552 people have recovered out of the 2,922 cases. The recovery rate in the US was not immediately clear a and there have been 126 cases.
As of now, China is treating its coronavirus patients with a combination of two HIV drugs, lopinavir and ritonavir.
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases said that
generally, people who are not elderly and the ones who do not suffer from underlying conditions are expected to recover.Health experts said that the average healthy person who gets the virus might suffer a fever, dry cough, and fatigue and be sidelined for a week or two, after which they should be fine.
Fauci said, “Still, we are going to see a 25-year-old person, who looks otherwise well, getting seriously ill every once in a while. However, the people who have these underlying conditions are the vast majority of people who get into trouble.”
