      People are writing stories about why Brazil is facing a rapid rise in coronavirus cases, but I want to read the stories about why Egypt, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Nigeria and Pakistan are not. And they really aren't, and it is beyond time for people to get curious about why not.

      In the 1918 flu pandemic, mortality rates were something like 10x higher in the poorest countries. The universal belief in February 2020 was that the developing world would be hit hardest by this pandemic. What did we get wrong, and how can we capitalize on it?

      There is a tension between saying we must lock down the US until a vaccine is ready, and the empirical fact that most of the world is not having a great deal of trouble keeping this epidemic contained. The circular explanation that they all have better policy doesn't hold up.

      You can claim that everybody is lying and undercounting, and the whole world looks like Lombardy and London, but if that's true, where are the bodies? This should be the #1 mystery about coronavirus we attempt to solve, because it might offer a quicker way out of the crisis.

      On a domestic U.S. note, this raises an urgent question—what if we really can lift restrictions across most of the country safely? Republicans who say this are being vilified, but honesty compels us to say they have strong evidence on their side. People need to get more curious

      Again, it's really hurting us to have most of the American media be highly neurotic residents of the cities hit hardest by this disease

      Standard responses I get to this line of inquiry are "just you wait, it will get worse", "we're not seeing the real data", and "show me the peer-reviewed studies that back this up". But we can't all go McClellan on this topic, and refuse to act on partial information in a crisis

          How America or more specific regions in the country shouldn’t and can’t responsibly rely on what’s happening or not happening in Pakistan.

          Maybe...people are distancing on their own and that cuts down R, some european countries have had really big issues with old, vulnerable populations either in nursing homes or in households, poorer countries are younger (still doesn’t explain japan, maybe old people live alone?)

          FWIW, I came across this take on Al Jazeera on why many African countries have been spared, relatively speaking. Not sure I find all of it persuasive, but at least it tackles the questions you're asking:https://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/problem-predicting-coronavirus-apocalypse-africa-200505103847843.html …

          there may be some undercounting, but I also suspect still-undermodeled factors include: 1/ in lower-life expectancy societies, more vulnerable/aged already felled by other maladies; 2/ large mortality contribution of ‘rich society’ maladies like obesity; ...+

          3/ some previously-circulating ‘common cold’ coronavirus has left differential levels of partial immunity in different populations - especially those that ‘normally’ have ‘worse’ cold/flu control (eg https://twitter.com/gojomo/status/1254908616248868869 …) ...+

          this new study from Germany provides some evidence for my March 17 conjecture (👆) that people with lingering immunity to common-cold coronaviruses may have some immunity or head-start fighting Covid-19: https://twitter.com/PKoellinger/status/1254112869286850562 …

          Check out Australia & NZ anytime you like. Lockdown, coherent plan and good compliance, and once the numbers dropped to low levels ,not plateau’d) easing back. And, no chance of USA visitors for years, you guys have stuffed this. One.
