Counts not the same thing as ratios...any epidemiologist would tell you that unless you do population wide testing no one is going to have accurate counts. That doesn’t mean the numbers are “BS”.

I'm giving you ratios and counts. Thats why I gave you pops. 闭嘴，你不对

No one’s counts are accurate for actual number of cases because no one’s done population wide epidemic survey yet. That’s why we look at ratios, because they give us idea of whether sampling is biasing up or down. If you’re deliberately fudging numbers makes no sense to bias up.

Not every country is going to have the same proportion of spread relative to a population. It depends on how early they detect clusters and how rigorously they exercise containment measures.

Correct, but in the context of all the video evidence of bodies, people being welded into their homes, massive sprays, nationwide shutdowns, it's pretty obvious that the problem got worse in China than Iceland so far.

Or, it’s obvious that China took the idea of trying to contain this thing a lot more seriously than other countries, so all the scary harsh measures people sensationalized outside of China actually worked to keep the spread of infection down?
