It’s a way of life. 2020-08-07T04:00:00Z The standard police baton, according to industry literature, has a higher “risk of lethality” than stun guns or pepper spray, meaning it can be more deadly than both. Editorial Roundup: Excerpts from recent Minnesota editorials 2020-07-20T04:00:00Z “It’s very important to understand the lethality of a pandemic,” said Dr Howard Markel, a pandemic historian, expert in infectious diseases and a pediatrician at the University of Michigan School of Public Health. Coronavirus death rate: what it is, what it isn't and why US can expect it to rise 2020-07-18T04:00:00Z I am concerned that the emphasis on falling death rates may result in some people minimizing the lethality and morbidity of the disease. Opinion | Don’t be fooled by falling death rates 2020-07-10T04:00:00Z When the trial’s monitoring group noticed an increased lethality in the high-dosage group, it halted the study.

A Liberal East Coast Science Writer Talks to a Pro-Trump Texan Strength Coach about COVID-19 2020-05-09T04:00:00Z An increase in contagiousness does not necessarily correlate with greater lethality. Researchers hypothesize that a highly contagious strain of the coronavirus is spreading, but other experts remain skeptical 2020-05-05T04:00:00Z That high lethality meant infected individuals would not spread it as widely. Fox News' Laura Ingraham falsely claims “there was no real scientific basis” for social distancing 2020-05-05T04:00:00Z As the weeks have passed, evidence has mounted that Chinese government officials sought to silence doctors who raised alarm about the virus’ human-to-human transmission and potential lethality.

Is the official COVID-19 death count too low? Funeral directors, EMS workers say yes 2020-04-21T04:00:00Z The study, published in Science Direct, says: "The high level of pollution in northern Italy should be considered an additional co-factor of the high level of lethality recorded in that area." Air pollution linked to raised Covid-19 death risk 2020-04-20T04:00:00Z Without widespread testing to find out how many people have been infected, it remains impossible to determine precisely the lethality of the virus in any given community or demographic group. As U.S. coronavirus fatality rate rises to 5 percent, experts are still trying to understand how deadly this virus is 2020-04-17T04:00:00Z Fatality rates based on comparing deaths, which are relatively easy to count, to infections, which are not, almost certainly overestimate the true lethality of the virus, epidemiologists say. Why We Don’t Know the True Death Rate for Covid-19 2020-04-17T04:00:00Z Thus, even if the Santa Clara numbers are roughly accurate about the spread of the virus and its lethality, it would still be deadlier than the flu. Antibody tests support what’s been obvious: Covid-19 is much more lethal than the flu 2020-04-28T04:00:00Z Projections of the course of the disease and its lethality seem fluid. Editorial Roundup: North Carolina 2020-04-15T04:00:00Z Many are out of sight, but that cannot be license to disregard and neglect them — still less in a pandemic whose particular lethality has fixed the elderly, more than anyone, in its crosshairs. Opinion | Nursing homes are in the pandemic’s crosshairs. They can’t be neglected. 2020-04-13T04:00:00Z Still, the illness’ lethality remained theoretical until Jan. 11, when Chinese state media finally confirmed the first death from the virus. Impeachment.

Chernobyl Wildfires Reignite, Stirring Up Radiation 2020-04-11T04:00:00Z Something important is happening as the coronavirus crisis continues: Estimates of its lethality keep going down. Opinion | Why the coronavirus models aren’t totally accurate 2020-04-09T04:00:00Z “What he sees is the lethality of this thing unchecked, so now when you have 2.2 million lives at stake, you will accept more draconian measures than before.” Both public health and politics played a role in Trump’s coronavirus decision 2020-03-30T04:00:00Z The virus’s lethality remains almost exclusively confined to the elderly, with those 70 or older comprising the biggest groups of deaths by far.

Perspective | Maya Moore left the basketball court for criminal justice reform. She is seeing the results. 2020-03-18T04:00:00Z First, identifying even mild cases of the infection that are now going uncounted would yield a more accurate picture of the lethality of the disease. Opinion | With so few coronavirus tests, America has been flying blind into a storm 2020-03-12T04:00:00Z The death rate from the flu varies widely, depending on how strong the strain, but its potential lethality is sharply curbed by the built-in immunity created by vaccinations and some people’s immune defenses. Nursing Homes Becoming Islands of Isolation Among ‘Shocking’ Mortality Rate 2020-03-10T04:00:00Z That number represents the denominator in a fraction whose numerator is the number of confirmed dead, and which would tell us the true lethality of this pathogen. Opinion | We don’t know the most important fact in the world right now 2020-03-09T04:00:00Z With the upward estimates for lethality, and increasing community spread in the United States, putting the disease in context is warranted. Novel Coronavirus testing-problems and solutions 2020-03-06T05:00:00Z And a small part of this research involves making strains of these pathogens that pose even more danger than the natural types, increasing their transmissibility, lethality or resistance to vaccination or treatment. Why we need worst-case thinking to prevent pandemics 2020-03-06T05:00:00Z Some health experts agree it is too early to make any predictions about the spread and lethality of the virus over the next six months.
