The coronavirus is ravaging large parts of Europe, with Italy and Spain now the worst-hit countries in the world.53,340 Germans had tested positive for the coronavirus as of midday Berlin time on March 28, with 397 deaths, according to the German newspaper Die Zeit. That means Germany has a death rate of 0.74%.That rate is far below that of Spain, which at 7.82%, China at 4.02%, and Italy, which is at 10.56%.
"We have a culture here in Germany that is actually not supporting a centralized diagnostic system," Drosten said."So Germany does not have a public health laboratory that would restrict other labs from doing the tests. So we had an open market from the beginning." The town of Vó in northern Italy quashed an outbreak after relentless testing, but the country as a whole has not been able to replicate the phenomenon.
Germany spends $4,714.26 per person each year on healthcare, according to World Bank data from 2016. The figure is higher than most other nations. Old people have by and large avoided infection. The average age of a German infected with coronavirus is 46, whereas in Italy it is 63, according to Wired.
"Germany's also a little bit earlier on in the process than Italy," Martin Hibberd, professor of emerging infectious diseases at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, told Wired."It takes two or three weeks of intensive care before people often succumb to the disease."
Yahoo Is Germany doing the tests properly? Is Germany doing a post-mortem examination to clarify that Covid-19 wasn't the reason do die?
Wish we could say the same in the US.

Uh huh. Now compare numbers with population figured in.
Discipline, cleanness, driving cars, not busses or tube. Not visiting older people !!
The biggest takeaway is that they conduct 120,000 tests per week. This should have been the first step: acquiring enough tests for everyone who needs one.
Maybe we should emulate their system
Similar in Japan.
Not all developed countries are developed the system takes the challenge and controls it.
good for them. We can all learn something from them.
Germany at is best :-)
Good to know how we can improve.
