Will the COVID-19 epidemic lead to a sharp increase in mortality and a sharp decrease in population?

No, since the emergence of novel coronavirus, the epidemic prevention and control has become more and more sophisticated, and the epidemic situation has been controlled in a small range, so a large number of people have been prevented from being infected, so the consumption of medical resources has been reduced, so the mortality rate will also be reduced. Moreover, isolation treatment will be carried out in time after the case is found, so that severe cases will be turned into mild cases, and patients with mild cases will gradually return to normal, so the mortality rate will be greatly reduced.
