What Wikipedia says

In epidemiology, case fatality rate (CFR), or sometimes more accurately case-fatality risk, is the proportion of people who have been diagnosed with a certain disease and end up dying of it. Unlike a disease's mortality rate, the CFR does not take into account the time period between disease onset and death.
