I n December 2019, several cases of pneumonia of unknown cause were reported in Wuhan, China that were later recognized as a novel coronavirus infection, named coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) by the World Health Organization (WHO). The reported clinical characteristics included the patient's age, sex, initial onset symptoms, pre-existing chronic diseases, direct cause of death, date of admission, date of diagnosis, and date of death. Among the 100 COVID-19 fatalities, 16 cases were missing data on direct cause of death. In this Internet-based data intelligence study, we observed that the majority of COVID-19 deaths were elderly (approximately 8 of 10) and males (6 of 10), and most fatalities (3 of 4) occurred in patients with chronic illnesses.	./cache/cord-300651-4didq6dk.txt	./txt/cord-300651-4didq6dk.txt
