Truth be told we're also including NON tested but diagnosed based on symptoms too.
I haven't seen this.
I've been knee deep in this data from the beginning and look at models/statistics every day. Some people have PUIs in their data, but I haven't seen that passed off as positive for COVID once.
This isn't like the flu, they are dead serious about knowing who is and isn't positive because they want to track transmission/clusters.

We are a lot larger than Italy/Spain so it is of no surprise that we have a lot more confirmed cases then both of those countries.
So far, it looks like we are doing a pretty good job of handling the virus over here. Spain and Italy are getting the everloving shite kicked out of them over there. Over here, outside of a few states like New York, Louisiana, and New Jersey, we are faring quite well with the virus I believe.

Oh you are using percentages to invalidate my accurate comment. Just like the ops misunderstanding of reality. How many test have the US done in total vs the others?

Leadership failure. Trump fiddled for 8 weeks while in denial about the possible consequences. Due to that, we didn’t get ahead of the spread with targeted quarantine and extensive testing. His denial led to rubes all around the nation refusing to take the disease seriously. Couple this with the fact that there was no centralized response due to Trump’s leadership failure, and here we are.

Looking at the worldwide numbers we have over 200,000 cases more than Spain who is reporting the 2nd most cases
We flubbed initial testing efforts. But we've since corrected and are testing more than anyone else right now.

Well that not fair. It would destroy their argument.

The mortality rate may ultimately be close to the flu, but the transmission is much more rapid - making it much more dangerous.

No, we didn't get ahead with extensive testing because the CDC refused to use the WHO's test, wasted time developing there own, and it didn't even work correctly.
But of course Orange Man is Bad.
You TDS tards are something else.

Is this something that really needs to be explained to you? You couldn't have just though it out?
Go to FB, Twitter, reddit, etc. There are a lot of people out there who either don't understand this or are intentionally ignoring it. A lot of people are just looking at total numbers. For example I've seen some people talk about how they hope India won't end up as bad as the US.

Yeah, I’m sure that the CDC did that within a vacuum and the Trump administration had no idea. /s

The CDC did not refuse any offer of test from the WHO. This was a false statement by Biden

Yes, in fact they did. I mean are you new to how government bureaucracies operate?

It is not, China numbers are not even remotely real. Plus, they are only testing sick people and we have superior testing right now.

Compare per capita numbers not raw numbers.
