Abstract: Abstract A good metric to use in measuring the devastation to health associated with the coronavirus pandemic is the cumulative COVID-19 death rate. It is a more reliable indicator than confirmed number of infections or hospitalizations, particularly since vaccination and previous infections have resulted in more asymptomatic cases or slight illnesses not being reported or even recognized by those experiencing them.
