For people who says Chinese data is bogus they have done more to contain the virus than the US has. They completely locked down entire cities, required every citizen to wear n95 mask, made people who were sick stay in containment facilities until recovered so they don't infect their family, shut down travel into certain cities. All the US has done is shut down non essential business and pump money into the stock market. They need to take more drastic measures to contain this virus.

More widespread testing is bad now?
I don’t think all of the increases are just from more widespread testing. Jefferson County, AL has seen an explosion in case numbers the last few days, even though there has not been a note able increase in testing capacity/ability.

You're comparing a free country to a non free country.
Apples to oranges.

If you mean they welded people up in their homes to die, then yes

“It’s very much under control.” Unbelievable.
I cannot wait until election day and Trump wins to see the face of guys like this as RBG goes down and Trump appoints a Louisiana girl in her place.
We are going to peak by Sunday and not top our worst flu death total by the time this is over. I will wager ANY amount you propose but will only do so if the cash is deposited now and we find someone we both trust to pay the winner.

How about a figure that equalizes all countries? I'm pretty sure Italy blows every other country away on a per capita basis. Ditto Spain. And if you seperate the tri-state area we are very low by even the raw figures.

This is not true. Fake news like POTUS calls it.

It is kinda funny.
If you don’t like it move.
“It’s not that easy”
Yes it it’s, just go on your firms website and apply for a role in a different country

Just Poof! Later they botched a fake message to his wife, and have yet to provide proof of life or death to the wife and child.
Hell, the Chinese government made a billionaire disappear for criticizing their President's handling of Covid19. Not a random rural farmer, a literal fricking BILLIONAIRE. Google Ren Zhiqiang, he's basically China's version of Donald Trump (pre-Presidency).
The Head of Interpol, not some low level desk jockey or file room clerk. Barely a peep out of our media and not a single word from our Government. The Head of the International Police force gets yanked off a train like some Cold War spy movie and it's just ho hum.

acted sooner instead of calling it a fricking hoax.
1) Trump was called an evil/hating bigot for restricting travel from areas in China IN JANUARY. Also in January the WHO and China said the virus wasnt transmitted person to person LINK
2)
3) Italy literally had people hugging Chinese people in February
quote:
The mayor of Florence, Italy,
@DarioNardella initiated "hug a Chinese" on Twitter on Feb 1, opposing anger toward China amid the #nCoV2019 outbreak, and calling for "Unity in this common battle!" Many Italian netizens responded by posting photos of themselves with Chinese.
TLDR; GFY. If Trump had instituted any stricter measures earlier he would've been eviscerated by the left and the media

Other countries aren't testing like we are.
Is that really true?
Germany has been testing around 120k a week for COVID-19 during the monthlong period since late February.
Some others:
Tests per million people:
7k South Korea
5k Italy
3k Canada
1k USA
The even more important distinction is WHEN the testing started. Germany, South Korea not only tested in huge numbers but did so and began isolating positives and their contacts while we were still saying this was no big deal.
