What is known among experts as the case fatality rate—but commonly referred to as the mortality or fatality rate—is calculated by dividing the number of deaths by the total number of people infected. For instance, if 100 people die out of 1,000 people infected by any given disease, the mortality rate would be 10 percent. As such, the mortality rate of a disease is changeable, and depends on a range of factors including the location of an outbreak, the health status of the infected person, and how much data has been accurately collected on the cases and deaths caused by the disease....

Nowadays, traveling from one place to another is a grave thing to do to unwind yourself. Similarly, many of us are away from families and not able to enjoy crowded parties, move back to hometown or stuck in one single place. Yes, the situation is not so pretty everywhere, but we can show you a brighter side during this pandemic alert. What To Do At Home During Coronavirus Pandemic Alert?...

The U.S. is now the epicenter of the outbreak, with more than 337,600 cases confirmed, and is expecting a surge in deaths over the coming week. Italy has reported new signs of the pace of the outbreak slowing down. Japan is expected to declare a state of emergency across the country as its capital Tokyo struggles to cope with a growing number of cases. Italy’s daily death rate decreases significantly Italy has reported its lowest daily death toll in over two weeks, reporting 525 new fatalities on Sunday, the smallest rise since mid-February, the country’s civil protection department confirmed....

Florida Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis, a DeSantis ally, announced last week that the Sunshine Sate was pulling out $2 billion from asset manager BlackRock. That firm has morphed into one of the most pernicious institutional forces pushing a radical political agenda upon American businesses. BlackRock CEO Larry Fink acts as an enforcer for leftist ruling class schemes, such as extremist “sustainability” provisions and aggressive corporate intrusion into hot-button social issues that are unrelated to business....

Looking at his latest release, Kirby: Mass Attack, it’s hard to glean much at all from that ambiguous of a title. Is he having a mass attack, as in the heart or panic variety? Is he plotting a mass attack? Should the President be informed? Is he listening to some Massive Attack and just getting their name wrong? These are the questions we should be asking here, people! This little pink marshmallow-with-appendages has gone unchecked for too long....

Join us every Sunday for the same Game Rant-flavored awesome-sauce that you’ve grown accustomed to… only now with pictures! Pssst, hey. You want to know the real reason why Master Chief has been AWOL for the last two Halo games? Look no further than the scandalous image we received from our fearless paparazzi sketch artist. (Yeah, they have those.) The legendary Spartan has been camped out there since Halo 3, doing nothing but eating UNSC-issued rations and talking to a pile of empty Red Bull cans that he thinks is Cortana about “pwning noobz....

The mask's designer, David Gunnarsson, posted some photos on Instagram. From Gunnarsson: "Our plan was a design that works in all angles, and a so called 2 in 1 design, a design that works both on a distance in the arenas, and close up in the TV cameras. At a first glimpse it´s an old school design, and when you come closer and closer a new dimension opens up and the design transforms into a new design in front of your eyes....

Despite topping the club’s goalscoring charts in 2016-17, with his 20 efforts helping the Blues to the Premier League title, the Spain international has been deemed surplus to requirements. The path has been cleared at the end of a campaign in which he generated plenty of transfer talk for a move to be made, with various landing spots mooted – from Atletico Madrid to China. Costa agent teases Milan move...

Griezmann decided against a move away from the Liga side last year due to a FIFA-imposed ban on Atleti signing new players. The 27-year-old is once more being linked with Barcelona and Manchester United, and acknowledged in an interview with L’Equipe that he wants his future to be resolved before the World Cup begins in June. Costa rejoined Atletico from Chelsea last year, although the registration ban meant he had to wait until January to officially return to the Spanish capital, where he has established a formidable partnership with Griezmann in recent weeks....

“The store has been clogged up with crowds,” Costco texted club members. “To provide you with better shopping experience, Costco will suspend business in the afternoon. Please don’t come.” Police were also forced to step in and monitor the “heavy traffic” both inside and outside of the store—issuing a statement about the three-hour wait time and snapping pictures of the packed parking lot. “Local police will assist in improving traffic in the area, in order to lessen the disturbance to our neighbors, and we have improved our internal guest flow system,” Costco said....

The studio enjoys teasing the fans with artwork showcases and it had revealed new director images before both Forsaken and Shadowkeep launched, but never this early. It seems like Bungie wants to prepare the players as much as possible for the evolution of the game following the launch of Beyond Light. RELATED: Why Destiny 2’s Beyond Light Delay is a Good Thing The most important change is the loss of the four vaulted destinations but that is no secret....

Say what you want about how it has unfolded at Florida State — the university has made an absolute mess of (take your pick) investigating, enabling and disciplining quarterback Jameis Winston — the bottom line on the field is nothing fazes this team. Not a botched and bungled investigation of Winston. Not the big, bad SEC in the biggest game of all. Not the hangover of winning it all or bored way they’ve played over the first month of the season....

Butler’s arrival served as both a win-now statement by Minnesota’s front office and a beacon of hope that Golden State’s stranglehold on the Western Conference will not last for what feels like forever. Silent up until moments before the trade, the Timberwolves’ pursuit of Jimmy Butler became the lone major deal on a draft night that felt poised for several blockbusters. TRADE TRACKER: Biggest rumors, reported deals ahead of free agency...

Many are coerced into shrouding their bodies. The veil is the visible symptom of their more comprehensive subjection. They are required to be obedient, to ask permission of their male guardians when they leave the house, often with a chaperone. These victims of force, whether they live in England or in Saudi Arabia, almost always have very limited education. They are married young, through arranged or forced marriages, and are groomed for docility....

As of Tuesday, Maui County, the third-largest county in Hawaii, now requires residents or visitors to have a booster shot to be considered fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Adults over 18 that are eligible for boosters will have to show proof of vaccination in order to do things like dining at restaurants or bars or visiting gyms. Boosters will be required five months after getting the second dose of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, or two months after the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine....

Belgian captain Vincent Kompany was hailed as courageous by coach Marc Wilmots after playing a good part of their 2014 World Cup qualifier with Serbia with mild concussion, a broken nose and a fractured eye socket. The 27-year-old – also club captain of 2012 Premier League champions Manchester City – suffered the multiple injuries in the first-half of the 2-1 win when he clashed with Serbian goalkeeper Vladimir Stojkovic....

Hayes is serving a 25-year sentence for manslaughter in the shooting death of Smith and attempted manslaughter in the wounding of Smith’s wife. The shooting happened in April 2016 as Smith and his wife and friends were driving through a New Orleans neighborhood after leaving a sushi restaurant. Hayes insisted at trial that he fired after a drunk, angry Smith retrieved a gun from his car and fired first, but he was convicted in a 10-2 decision....

The Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law and a coalition of civil rights groups filed a lawsuit on Tuesday in the U.S. District Court in Richmond to extend the deadline for voter registration. They argued that the lack of an extension would disproportionately affect minority groups and younger voters, who tend to register on the last day. “The commonwealth failed the public and it must grant a significant extension to ensure all Virginians are given an equal opportunity to exercise their fundamental right to vote,” said Kristen Clarke, president and executive director of the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, in a news release....
