China has the most cases and deaths. 18000 dead ain't shite out of 500k cases in the USA. That's relatively low.

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


Exactly my point. People that normally would be categorized as dying from one of these reasons are being listed as having died from Coronavirus, even if it played no role in their death.

So you believe China?

A country of a billion plus that was the epicenter of the Virus with a tenth of the medical capability of the west.


China would need to have a mortality rate of 13 deaths per 1,000,000 people or lower to have fewer deaths than the US. Countries like South Korea and Singapore have lower death rates than that so it's not impossible but I just don't believe it. South Korea and Singapore have only managed to keep their numbers down through a very sophisticated, well-organized, and expansive testing and tracing program along with total cooperation from their government. That's not the case with China. If they have a mortality rate comparable to Germany who has a very low death rate of 33 people, China would still have 2.5x more deaths than the US.

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.


They don't really believe, they just have an election in November they are trying to win and this is their only shot.

Total deaths for 2020 will fall right in line with total deaths for past years I bet.

Let's go back to work please

I'd be willing to bet that China has killed more people in their efforts to keep their real numbers quite than have died in the US from corona. Then, add China's corona deaths to that number, and they aren't quite as crowded today.

I figured it was only a matter of time. Also worth being noted that we are a hell of a lot bigger than Spain/Italy. They have leveled off a good bit so their death rate has slowed down, We are peaking right now overall so hopefully we slow down in deaths by next week.

Also literally everyone everywhere already knows China is lying. It's not even worth being mentioned anymore. Because no one knows to what extent they are lying(it's a lot), I don't even take them into account.

Last I read, from photos of urn distribution and the fact that all the Wuhan mortuaries were running 24hrs a day for weeks is that Wuhan alone had 40-46,000 deaths. So yea,I am not following the chicom numbers
