The main problem with the folks extrapolating the data is that they are not using any common denominators. The infected and the dead have to be compared to a larger denominator, otherwise the numbers are BS. So the irresponsible and manipulative media, along with the power hungry liberals and gelded GOP, go along with the story line, panicking the masses.
YES! “Confirmed infected” (tested) people is a fraudulent number to use.
SO FEW HAVE BEEN TESTED and ONLY “likely infected” have been getting tested.
The fatality rate numbers are SKEWED or SCREWED, take your pick.
