New statistics added to corona page

I added the symptoms from wikipedia in my corona page. The most important ones are fever, fatique and headaque. In the top 10 countries with the most deaths the US and the UK are rising. China is stable for a while.

In my own country the Netherlands the real number of cases is unknown. Only when people are very sick they get a test because of the shortage of test material. At this moment my girlfriend had fever two days ago and stil suffers from fatigue. It is unknown if this is Corona or just a little bit of seasonable flu.

Corona deaths per country top 10

China still ranks first among most Corona victims. However there is now a decline in the number of new cases. Italy is now in first place in Europe. The Netherlands my own country still has only 20 victims. This evening, our Prime Minister gave a speech on national television for the first time since 1973. The Netherlands will be locked in the near future with the aim of spreading infections over time. It is not possible to stop corona, but delaying the epidemic would put less pressure on healthcare capacity.

Corona covid19 analysis of the deaths

Corona (covid19) is the plague of today since a week. Out of curiosity I downloaded a dataset from the datascience competition kaggle. The dataset is not very big but I found out that the mortality rate is 3%. Most of the dead are elderly people. Average is 70. I think the reason behind the measures which governments are taking is for instance that 3% of the Dutch population is 510.000 people. The percentage is low but total count is high if enough people are becoming sick. De used Python code can be found at my gitlab account.
