We analyzed age-/sex-specific morbidity and mortality data from the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in China and Republic of Korea (ROK). Data from China exhibit a Gaussian distribution with peak morbidity in the 50–59-year cohort, while the ROK data have a bimodal distribution with the highest morbidity in the 20–29-year cohort.
