I have little doubt there are recording and reporting problems, especially with the deaths. There remains a very strong cultural bias toward customary funerals, and there have been problems with people just not reporting deaths because they would be expected to surrender the body.

Those same funerals have been a common means of spreading the virus.

If the count was accurate, the death rate would be in the 30% range, indicating new and effective treatments.

If those treatments were that effective in country, why fly people out for treatment?

Early on, 70% was closer to the mark, and I have my doubts the situation has been that much improved, despite the efforts of a host of agencies from all over the world.

That confirms my thinking as well.

Thanks. Good to know that if I’m nuts, perhaps you are too.
