Thanks for the clarification. I wonder which site has the more accurate information—worldometers or WHO. If you look at the deaths per million at worldometers, you will note that a lot of 2nd and 3rd world countrie have very low death statistics.
I am sure some of that is because of poor public health and reporting facilities, but I also wonder if it is because a lot were using HCQ for malaria or Ivermectin for nasty parasites. Also exposure to tropical sun and lack of air conditioning would have increased their Vitamin D levels. I was wondering why Florida and other US southern states had Covid spikes in the summer. Then I relized they all go inside for the AC in the heat of the day, thus no sun exposure and reduced blood Vitamin D levels. You can see that pattern if you go to worldometers-USA and look at the over time graphs there.
