Tbh, I don't even want to get started on the "the masks" argument. At this point we don't have enough data to separate correlation from causation. To be clear: this is not about that.

It's a combination of lack of testing, lack of reporting (i.e. Germany only calling patients who die from covid without any other condition covid deaths), and its social distancing. The olympics plays into this.
