Stats now corrected for Australia - but was the error a warning ? 

[eol-products]

I just think someone thought they can't be below US with the percentage of deaths and figured it was an error.

I did hear a US doctor last talk about percentage of deaths and mentioned they where the lowest for countries above 9000 cases. I just thought 9000 seemed a strange number.

They probably used 9000 to compare themselves with Italy. Climate scientists call that 'cherry picking'.

[*kazumi*]

There are other criteria than totel cases an death.  Look at the numbers per capita cases, and even more interestingly the difference between total number of cases and number of recovered people, as well as number of critical, and when the 1st case appeared.

One thing that stands out to me is the low number of serious, critical cases in Australia. I realize population numbers and numbers of infected etc. need to be taken into consideration, but the number is low compared to the other countries featured at the bottom. I wonder what exactly it reflects?

You mentioned - shopping today - no toot paper.

Yet you have to go to the Chemist - tomorrow.

Why not the whole shebang in one day - then stay at home.

Enquiring minds - & - all that.
