Ah. No. That's the tested and confirmed cases the presumed cases are estimated at twenty times that.

@Rayinman Right. Those are confirmed cases. Trump didn't accept the WHO test so we don't have enough to test everyone who needs it. Hence the models suggesting that the actual case number is 20 times higher than that

@Rayinman Yes. But only people who have been tested. Making the actual cases unknown but able to be modeled with data we have.

@Rayinman I think people aren't being tested because there aren't enough tests or testing capacity and for awhile there it wasn't clear who would pay for the test. We don't have the data we need because the federal government has failed.

@Rayinman The federal government won't come out with the vaccine. The current front runner is a German biotech company.
