    Document: The copyright holder for this preprint (which was not peer-reviewed) is the . https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.04.06.20055699 doi: medRxiv preprint When the COVID-19 pandemic broke out it soon became clear that the healthcare systems in possibly every country in the world would be crippled by an overwhelming need for hospitalization exceeding the available resources and supply chains. While many vital characteristics of the pathogen are still unclear it appears that the virus is as deadly as it is contagious. The actual fatality rate hasn't fully crystalized yet due to insufficient testing. Some speculate fatality rates well below 1%. Even if the fatality rate is close to that of influenza, this virus distinguishes itself by concentrating annual totals for deaths and critical care needs into a matter of weeks. A worrying statistic is the death rate among resolved cases, which is varying between 10% to over 90%.
