Good points! Just changed it: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/case-fatality-rate-of-covid-19-vs-median-age … The size of the circle now corresponds to the total confirmed deaths up to that date. And you can switch any of the axes to log.
I already learned something interesting. Judging from the data so far, the way countries end up with a lot of deaths is by having a high CFR (rather than having a high population).
Pardon my ignorance: what is CFR?
Case fatality rate
Yes, it's a very bad sign; that they're not coping.
In fact, Max, how about a scatterplot of CFR vs total deaths? That should show the correlation directly.
How would that help? Wouldn't it just give you straight lines to the top right, because CFR directly depends on total deaths? CFR vs Age seems more interesting.
UK advice: You can't go outside okay?! That's unless you need to go outside of course or get food shopping, exercise, medical things or if you need to go to work that's ok too.
That says a lot about the importance of avoiding an overwhelmed medical system.
During a pandemic, shouldn't CFR be defined as = (Total Deaths/Total Resolved), where Total Resolved= Total Deaths + Total Recovered after Hospitalization, and not as Total Deaths/Total Identified? 1/2
On looking at past epidemics, the two will converge but when a pandemic is still raging, the latter would underestimate fatalities.
