If you use the #pandemie , you can't avoid knowing anything about data, statistics and graphs. Correspondent Sanne Blauw will guide you through the most important #corona numbers, such as the mortality rate and the infectiousness of the virus, and show how much uncertainty remains. For example, there is no way to say how high 'the number of infections' is.

We only know the number of confirmed infections. The RIVM therefore writes about 'the number of positively tested people'.

Patients with mild (or no) symptoms are not tested at all — therefore it is quite likely that the actual number of infections is much higher.

But: the figures do not take into account the number of healings.Those who no longer show symptoms count as a contagion.And this is just one of the insights. Even if you don't like numbers, Sanne's explainer gives you the tools for interpreting the #coronanieuws .
