    Until we test a heck of a lot more...and then look at "deaths above the norm"

    But that's WAYYYY down the road.

    Right now we know we have two THOUSAND people dying from it every day

    They are publishing inflated numbers as a scare tactic, just like the 2 million dead crap they tried to sell us.

    Until we can actually test in much greater quantities than we are...the numbers say it's VERY deadly

    You disagree? Show me the tests

    Until then we have to deal with nearly 70,000 DEAD folks...with 2,000 dying every day...ALL across the country

    Which means you know that -any- death rate you quote is wrong.
    Yet, you keep doing it.

    You know you statement is false as you know exactly no one has idea how many infections there are.

    That is the number of infected that have been shown to be so by testing.

    You're right. Two months into this thing and the Trump Admin has STILL not been able to get proper testing up to speed

    Nothing here changes the fact you know your statement is false.

    South Korea isn't the U.S.

    Fraction of our population, tiny fraction of our geographical size, most of the population concentrated, much better social cohesiveness and cooperation by the public with the government.

    And they are very close to China and most likely did not believe the CCP. BTW they did not lockdown.
