Table 2. COVID-19 cases, deaths, case-fatalities, and mortality per 100 000 people in six well-resourced countries.

Country	Confirmed cases	Deaths	Case-fatality	Death per 100 000 population
UK	321 064	41 454	12.9%	62.35
US	5 438 325	170 497	3.1%	52.11
The Netherlands	64 980	6194	9.5%	35.95
Canada	124 218	9075	7.3%	24.49
Australia	23 773	438	1.8%	1.75
New Zealand	1643	22	1.3%	0.45

Confirmed cases and hence case-fatality depend on the degree to which community testing and surveillance is occurring, and whether all deaths (including those at home or in aged care facilities) are included.
