According to a study published by the INSERM – French National Institute for Health and Medical Research – Covid has been three times deadlier than the seasonal flu. Data found after observing admissions of 130,000 patients in hospitals this spring 2020 in comparison with the 2018/2019 flu season.
With about one million deaths in the world, Coronavirus ends up much deadlier than other viral epidemics we have experienced so far. Yet, we are still far from the 50 million Spanish flu deaths, and hope never going this far.
