Obviously there are major differences between countries in terms of both their testing policies and their reporting, but Germany is developing into an interesting outlier potentially. If figures are correct (and the initial figures are being revised, I've noticed), they've now reported a massive number of recoveries such that the massive rise in current cases may be levelling out, perhaps, while the reported deaths remain relatively tiny.
The stats are puzzling at the moment. Germany may not be hurtling towards Italy-style disaster, but S Korea-style containment.
Am I right in saying that Germany and S Korea have done far more tests than other places? It appears the Germans may have learned the lessons quicker than others, and that the message should be test test test.
They need to be very careful. Following Trump ‘s lie about chloroquine being approved by the FDA a few days ago people have become terribly ill. It’s very easy to overdose on chloroquine.
Nigeria Has Chloroquine Poisonings After Trump Praised Drug
Nigeria reported two cases of chloroquine poisoning after U.S. President Donald Trump praised the anti-malaria drug as a treatment for the novel coronavirus.www.bloomberg.com

It does seem very tinfoil hatty but those numbers from China just don't add up. One of the most densely populated places on the planet, and the virus suddenly decided to stop... I think not. Far more likely that the Chinese Government decided that that's the official stance.
Masses of uninhabitable or sparsely inhabited desert though. Hubei is higher density than UK (305 to 274 people per square km) and it's only the twelfth most densely poplated province/municipality in China. Tibet is huge and has less then two and a half people per square km.I dunno about the science stuff but while china has a massive population it's also a massive place, it's population density is well below UK
try building temporary hospitals here without planning permission first and no health and safety regulations. the chinese bussed in workers from all over china who worked through the night. never gonna happen in the west.
It does seem very tin hatty, but you can look at the numbers on the mobile networks for yourself. Could be anyone who took pictures or videos pretty sure they were getting arrested and having their phones taken of them. Muslims that are being rounded up and taken into camps, the deaths or a combination. But look at the mobile networks' data, there has never been such a drastic drop in users. Over the 3 main networks.It does seem very tinfoil hatty but those numbers from China just don't add up.

Hmm, Italy have had more than double the deaths than China have had in total.Breakdown by country
The WHO sent a team to China to investigate this and other issues and they declared that they trusted Chinese numbers.I think the numbers from China are iffy at best. Just from the amount of time the cremation furnaces were running. The videos from January and the response, do not match the numbers.
We have relaxed delivery regulations at supermarkets and relaxed driver hours to enable more deliveries.try building temporary hospitals here without planning permission first and no health and safety regulations. the chinese bussed in workers from all over china who worked through the night. never gonna happen in the west.
What do you think of the WHO monitoring team that visited China and approved of their CV-19 regime?I believe the numbers from China like I believe... something else I don't believe. They just don't add up (in my mind).
I'm sure they did. That doesn't mean a thing. The WHO might have been mislead or even gasp lied to. Those cremation furnaces were running 24/7 when they only usually run 4 hours a night. 4 hours on a busy night = approx 300 people cremated. They were going 24/7 and screaming out for help for a good month or so. You can believe what ever you like. But, I don't trust the CCP, and I fear that the death toll for this is going to be utterly catastrophic. Why is the Italy death toll so much higher in a much shorter time frame? The infection rate didn't match any of the models, but everyone elses kind of does. Other than Iran, but we've all seen the mass graves from the satellite pictures, and the videos of lots of them being dug/filled.The WHO sent a team to China to investigate this and other issues and they declared that they trusted Chinese numbers.
I've no skin in this game, but it wouldn't be the first time an international body had the wool pulled over their eyes by a national government.What do you think of the WHO monitoring team that visited China and approved of their CV-19 regime?

It seems to me that German deaths are still accelerating just like everywhere else, only slower.Obviously there are major differences between countries in terms of both their testing policies and their reporting, but Germany is developing into an interesting outlier potentially.

The numbers from China and Iran are not entirely credible. Same applies to Russia, zero dead in Russia if you believe its government's reporting.Hmm, Italy have had more than double the deaths than China have had in total.
Way slower. We can't know the comparative actual infection rates, of course - the UK's real infection rate is probably higher than Germany's, for instance, so the official figures don't mean much. But S Korea and China have got on top of this without mass deaths (let's take China's figure at face value for now, and Korea has got on top of it with hardly any deaths), so we know that is something that can be done, even in places with megacities.It seems to me that German deaths are still accelerating just like everywhere else, only slower.
I wonder if the apparently economically distributed nature of Germany is a factor.
Its not just New York either.
On a national level, they are currently fucking around with social distancing measures for a ludicrous 15 days, and Trump has already started making stupid noises about what decision he would prefer to make at the end of that period.
Trump suggests he may scale back closures soon despite worsening coronavirus outbreak
President Donald Trump said on Monday he is considering how to reopen the U.S. economy when a 15-day shutdown ends next week, even as the highly contagious coronavirus is spreading rapidly and hospitals are bracing for a wave of virus-related deaths.www.reuters.com
One of the effects of Trump's presidency has been the assertion by many states of their own autonomy. We've seen it over climate change, and we're seeing it again here, thank fuck.I don’t have any idea of how indicative this is but everyone I know over there went into voluntary lockdown about 7-10 days ago.
In terms of deaths, I'm not even sure it is way slower. The UK had its first deaths (two) on 5th March, then none/ones/twos for a bit, until the 14th March where it began to snowball. Germany had its first (two) on 10th March, then unpredictable numbers until recently. However its death rate yesterday (36) is roughly where the UK was five days ago (40). I think you should probably expect it to ultimately follow the same pattern, which is the guidance given by German authorities too.Way slower. We can't know the comparative actual infection rates, of course - the UK's real infection rate is probably higher than Germany's, for instance, so the official figures don't mean much.
