Covid infection and recovery, US and Kerala comparison..

US has a Covid 19 infection recovery rate of 18000 /337000 = 5.3 % and a Covid fatality rate of 2.8% (0.028) while Kerala has showed an amazing recovery rate of 17% and a fatality rate of 0.6% (0.006). 

The Covid fatality rate in US is 4.5x that in Kerala, while the infection recovery rate in Kerala is 3.5x of US (17%  in Kerala compared to 5.3% in US), which speaks volumes of the excellent medical care provided to Covid patients in Kerala, contrary to US claims of the same. 

US is 9.3x the population of Kerala, though it is 245x the area of Kerala.

There is 15.8x times (1580%) more chance of living and not dying of Covid 19 if you are in Kerala than if you were living in US during this global crisis time..

Numbers don't lie, though people and nations will, often .. 👍👍🙏👍
