The World’s 19 Most Powerful Countries Account for 71% of the World’s New Coronavirus Cases

On August 31st this year, 6 months have passed since the current pandemic forcefully started, on March 1st. It is an important opportunity to examine how the world’s great powers have developed effective government programs to reduce the number of cases. The power structure of the world is defined by nodal analysis as the number of hierarchically descending countries that account for 80% of the world nominal GDP. According to the latest definitive data available in the UN database in 2018, the power structure of the world consists of 19 countries presented in Table 1, each country being characterized by the share of total GDP and the share of total cases.  More

Twelve Countries Cumulate 80% of the Pandemic Deaths

The “parallel world” of the pandemic has two main coordinates: contagion cases and deaths, accompanied by the very important indicator of fatality rate relative to contagion cases (Rc/d).In our previous interventions – see here and here –, we demonstrated that the distribution of contagion cases has fully met the standards of nodal analysis. The comparative analysis by continents has identified three very important paradoxes: the United States, Asia and Africa. More
