“…Research efforts for the prediction of COVID-19 can be classified into statistical and data analytics methods [ 98 ]. Experimental results for various statistical and mathematical models reveal that they provide poor predictions as they are incapable of handling large amounts of data [ 98 ]. Regarding data analytics methods, the applications are mostly based on historical data only and do not consider external factors that affect the spread of the infection, such as population and median age index [ 98 ].…”

“…[7] Another interesting indicator that proved to have a significant effect on CFR was the Diet. The association between the global mortality rate of COVID-19 cases across different countries and dietary intake of different food groups was studied using an ecological study design [11]. The mortality rate is expressed in terms of CFR (Case-fatality rate).…”
