TextSentencer_T1 0-97 Sentence denotes Early estimation of the case fatality rate of COVID-19 in mainland China: a data-driven analysis.

TextSentencer_T3 110-374 Sentence denotes An ongoing outbreak of pneumonia caused by a novel coronavirus [severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV)-2], named COVID-19, hit a major city of China, Wuhan in December 2019 and subsequently spread to other provinces/regions of China and overseas.
TextSentencer_T4 375-570 Sentence denotes Several studies have been done to estimate the basic reproduction number in the early phase of this outbreak, yet there are no reliable estimates of case fatality rate (CFR) for COVID-19 to date.
TextSentencer_T5 571-579 Sentence denotes Methods:
TextSentencer_T6 580-707 Sentence denotes In this study, we used a purely data-driven statistical method to estimate the CFR in the early phase of the COVID-19 outbreak.
TextSentencer_T7 708-855 Sentence denotes Daily numbers of laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 cases and deaths were collected from January 10 to February 3, 2020 and divided into three clusters:
TextSentencer_T8 856-938 Sentence denotes Wuhan city, other cities of Hubei province, and other provinces of mainland China.
TextSentencer_T9 939-1020 Sentence denotes Simple linear regression model was applied to estimate the CFR from each cluster.
TextSentencer_T10 1021-1029 Sentence denotes Results:
TextSentencer_T11 1030-1117 Sentence denotes We estimated that CFR during the first weeks of the epidemic ranges from 0.15% (95% CI:

TextSentencer_T14 1263-1284 Sentence denotes 4.98-5.51%) in Wuhan.
TextSentencer_T15 1285-1297 Sentence denotes Conclusions:
TextSentencer_T16 1298-1479 Sentence denotes Our early estimates suggest that the CFR of COVID-19 is lower than the previous coronavirus epidemics caused by SARS-CoV and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV).
