Oh you don’t have to convince me... I think the whole thing is ridiculous and overblown.

So you believe China?
Many on this board do believe them and are willing to actively do their bidding. They assign no blame to China for any of this.

are actually honestly reporting our numbers.
If the cops in large metros and other areas are simply not responding, not reporting then the reported numbers are obviously gonna be down.
So the logical "cure" according to the Main Stream Propaganda would be to stop reporting Wu Flu cases at all. No reports = no cases/deaths! Duh!

But covid has iridicated deaths by the flu, pneumonia, and heart disease so we got that going for us.

Eh, we're probably over reporting "related deaths"

Yes there are actually a lot of people who do.
A lot of people on places like Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, etc. only are looking at total case/deaths to determine who’s doing the worst. Since the US is no.1, they think the US is doing the worst
Also since you can’t prove China’s lying, they’ll just ask you how you know. For some people if you try to criticize another country, they always comes back to criticizing the US too

USA 1st in everything

USA 18,870
Italy 18, 849
California has more than half the population of Italy. Double California’s current covid deaths and you’re at 1,082 total. While true in theory, it’s a poor argument you presented.

even if that were remotely true:

Lol if you believe China has less than anyone.
Posted on 4/11/20 at 10:50 am to JPLSU1981
Not exactly. Spain and Italy are not counting any deaths outside of hospitals and that includes Nursing Homes. That is with a 11% death rate compared to 3% in the US. Don't forget Italy and Span combined have 100 million people combined and the US is 350+. If we were as unprepared as parts of Europe we very well could have had close to a million in deaths.

No. We’re not honestly reporting our numbers. We are categorizing anyone who dies with Coronavirus as a Coronavirus death. For example if someone has the virus and dies of a heart attack the cause of death is considered Coronavirus. So we are actually inflating our numbers.

I’d be willing to bet more Chinese have been thrown in a ditch and covered up with a backhoe than have tested positive in this country.
