NOTES:
- The Ministry of Health data provides Covid death and recovery rates by age, but not the mortality percentage which we have calculated by dividing deaths by (deaths plus recovered).
- Death figures are of those who died with Covid, not necessarily because of it. We do not have the primary cause of death or co-morbidity data.
- 53 deaths is a small sample due to the 0.36% death rate, but the recovered sample size is significant at 14,810.
- We have not commented on any long-term side-effects from getting Covid, or not, as that is not yet well researched, understood, or published.
- All numbers are provisional and subject to revision.
