Source: Imperial College London. Published: 2/10/2020. This 12-page document is Report 4 of a series of reports from Imperial College London on COVID-19. It presents case fatality ratio (CFR) estimates for three strata of COVID-19 (novel coronavirus) infections. It is important to note that the differences in these estimates do not reflect underlying differences in disease severity between countries. CFRs seen in individual countries will vary depending on the sensitivity of different surveillance systems to detect cases of differing levels of severity and the clinical care offered to severely ill cases.
