      These are incredibly, astonishingly low numbers, even if you assume a lot of undercounting.https://twitter.com/WHOAFRO/status/1263033806132568065 …

      Note that there's a lot of incoherence in the explanations we hear for Africa. E.g., "how dare you assume that small, poor countries can't be better at wide-scale public health measures than Europe, oh and also they are all undercounting cases by many orders of magnitude."

      Another favorite explanation I hear is "poor countries have handled coronavirus better because they have recent experience of epidemic disease", which is like arguing that someone is good at crime prevention because they get mugged a lot

      Hoping that future journalism schools will offer topics like "paying more attention when a global pandemic mostly skips the two most populous continents"

          This username is slowly turning into a Coronavirus truther account.

          Doesn't being a truther require promoting an alternative theory?

          It's a favorite theory, but then you have to account for outbreaks in paces like Ecuador and Brazil

          The opposite—not offer just-so stories based on their favorite of the 5,000 explanations.

          Count me in the "Coronavirus is extremely transmissable and deadly...sometimes. And we have no clue what the sometimes depends on" camp as well

          I suspect the answer is just pure blind chance. A virus with low dispersion factor will have a bunch of lumpiness as a bunch of places manage to avoid rolling snake eyes for a while.https://twitter.com/kakape/status/1262863846387134470 …

          One of the things I love about my job is that I learn so many new things with every story. That was particularly true in my reporting for this story about #covid19 clusters and susperspreading events. Read it here and/or bear with me for a thread... https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2020/05/why-do-some-covid-19-patients-infect-many-others-whereas-most-don-t-spread-virus-all …

          It is possible they’ve had a bump in deaths but counting is inefficient. Would be ‘easy’ to miss 5-10k deaths nationwide for example.
