The infection fatality rate is the probability that a person will die once becoming infected, whether that person has symptoms or is unaware of the infection.

The global average infection fatality rate of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19, is roughly 0.23%.

Underneath this average, the infection fatality rate increases exponentially with age.
