Yep, that’s the account that no one aren’t doing: d death/recoveries. Everyone is doing deaths/infections what’s doesn’t make sense.
To be fair, doesn't China have a head-start in recovery rates?
Yes, and the US (at least) is far behind on testing sick people, let alone people who are only showing mild symptoms.
They also have a head start in death rates. The death/recovery should be the same unless there was a mutation
