I'm sure the actual number would be ten times higher if we tested every one in this country.

Zoomers - "our future is ruined". Millennials - "first time?".

It's stupid to compare the number of cases between countries. The number is completely dependent on testing rates and methods. In other words, don't come to any conclusions yet about where the "epicenter" is.


Just do your best to not spread the virus or overwhelm the hospitals.
