Here's a good map to follow what's going on.
The issue with all data is the incomplete data. Confirmed cases vs unconfirmed, the biggest part being no data at all due to no tests done. China says there are 80k infections right now with 3k deaths which would make it almost .4% mortality rate, but you really think there's only 80k infections in china? Which has a billion+ people? Check South Korea and how they have 7k infections but only 44 deaths. That is a .6% mortality rate. South Korea's population is 50 million so 7 in 5000 people have got it, vs in China (where it allll started) is only 1/20,000? Makes no sense to me. There has to be many many more cases in china that we don't know about. If you look at a country such as South Korea that will have much more accurate data than China, you can see that the mortality rate is much lower, as well as China's true infected numbers must be vastly off.
You were saying that USA has 100 infected but 12 deaths?
I also call bullshit on this. There was an article how BC Canada (where I'm from) has tested more people in our province of 5 Million people, than the entire United States has with 300 million.
There are definitely more infected in the US than what is stated, and the 12 death number does NOT mean that there is a 10% mortality rate.
