DUBAI — Iran extended COVID-19 curbs in Tehran and across the country on Monday as health authorities said they were recording a death from the virus every four minutes. Some hospitals had run out of beds to treat new patients, the head of the national coronavirus task-force told state TV. “Our doctors and nurses are tired. I urge everyone to respect the protocols,” Dr. Alireza Zali, who heads the committee in the national task force to combat the coronavirus in Tehran, said.The health ministry in the Middle East’s hardest-hit country reported 337 new deaths and 5,960 new cases over the past 24 hours.
Authorities have complained of poor social distancing, and Deputy Health Minister Iraj Harirchi said last week the death count could soon rise to 600 a day if Iranians fail to respect health protocols.

FALSE: 99% of people recover from COVID-19 – TrumpFactCheck: As of October 23, the case recovery rate in the US was at 39.88% and the global case recovery rate was at 67.97%, based on the Johns Hopkins University of Medicine COVID-19 dashboard. This is horrible fact checking. If the fatality rate is 2.65%, Rappler thinks recovery rate is 38.88%? 1/3 of the total number of cases are active but that number is also subject to the same fatality rate. googlenews U don't get 'case recovery rate' concept (i.e., NOT = total cum recoveries / total cum cases), so pls don't do COVID 'fact checking'. 'Recovery' relates only to 'cases with outcomes' (look it up). OTOH WebMD says overall recovery rate is 97% to 99.75%. FAIL Scientists and researchers have data only on confirmed cases, so they can’t count people not tested for COVID-19. Experts also don’t have info about outcome[s]. However, early estimates predict overall COVID-19 recovery rate is 97% to 99.75%.
