Nope. I've been looking into this and even more, nothing adds up.

It's a fear-mongering lottery scheme. Yeah. Maybe there are a few out of the many reported actually sick, like, 0.25%.

@Amyrakunejo Seems like a fairly deadly lottery

@Amyrakunejo People aren't just statistics. They're loved ones who should never have died.

@Moonpenny I don't disagree.

I also don't disagree with the fact that making the numbers look worse than they actually are IS AN ABSOLUTE DISGRACE TO THOSE THAT ACTUALLY HAVE BEEN AFFECTED. IT'S A SLAP IN THE FACE!!

@Amyrakunejo Yes, I do agree with you there. It's highly disrespectful.
There are so many different ways of presenting the data, including time lapses, that globally there should be an agreement as to how to show the numbers a) so they can be understood in layman's terms and b) so that they're not skewed or misrepresented. Of course this won't happen because the data is being used as a political and economic tool.
