China wildly misreporting its numbers is more than dumb national face-saving “stability” seeking bullshit. It means everybody else is badly miscalibrated on everything.

I don’t get it! It seems like everything has played out about how we expected based on the Chinese numbers.

As you expected maybe. I think most leaders under-reacted in time and effort based on Chinese numbers seeming low.

How much is "wildly misreporting", numerically?
My understanding is China's reports been as solid as west's, since national level took control late Jan.
UK now under-reports deaths by 25%. Italy total 'excess' deaths appears 2x official Covid num.
And how exactly throw off US?

WHO relying on numbers from China and recommending their practices exacerbated the miscalibration
