As cases of the CCP virus continue to surge around the world, new data suggests that fewer intensive care patients are dying from COVID-19, the disease caused by the virus.

Since the start of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus pandemic, the death rate for patients admitted to intensive care units (ICU) has declined by one-third, according to a global analysis of 24 observational studies of the disease involving 10,150 patients from across Asia, Europe, and North America.
