The Chinese Disease and Prevention Center (CCDC) reported a mortality rate of 14.8% in patients over 80 and 8% in patients aged 70. It decreased by 3.6% for people aged 60 to 1.3% for 50-59 years. The mortality rate for all ages under 49 was less than 0.5% - therefore clearly, age is one of the most important factors to take into account.

You do not know your sex

According to Chinese statistics, the fatality of men was 2.8% higher compared to 1.7% for women. It is not clear why men are more sensitive and there are many theories related to the way of life, that is to say smoking and drinking. The fact that men are also more likely to have pre-existing high-risk conditions could also be a factor.

You touches things

If you live with pets, do not forget to quarantine them too. There is no petition of pets becoming sick with Covid-19, but it's better if you stay away from your pet until more knows the virus. It includes "caressing, hugging, being kissed or licked and sharing food," says the CDC. "If you need to worry about your pet or be around the animals while you are sick, wash your hands before and after interacting with pets and wear a face mask."

You believe in conspiracy theories

Social media and even some information sites are full of theories of misinformation and conspiracy, including some people who claim that the mystery of the origin of the virus could indicate a determined human involvement. Scientists have already sequenced the genome of Covid-19 and proved that it has evolved naturally and has not been created in virus laboratories.
