COVID 19: The European strain of COVID 19 appears to be more contagious than the original Asian strain of COVID 19. Although there are articles I read in May 2020 indicating that the death rate was higher in Europe and US - I have also read contradictory data. At this point, I don't think it is clear that mortality rate per infection is any higher. Stay healthy.
