The numbers are all over the place. So either some countries are doing quite well or we don’t trust the numbers. What this doesn’t really tell a reader with a healthy level of skepticism, is how are countries with high populations managing to keep infections and death rates down compared to the most developed countries on earth? The data just doesn’t make sense.
It's hard. Some countries are testing more, some are testing less. Some countries report death under the WHO definition, some not.
Also keep in mind that the average age in India is 26 years. In Canada it's over 40. We have way more old people (compared to our overall population) than India. Same goes for African countries. They don't have the money to test people and they don't have as many old people.
