You edited out the second sentence. The full quote is:
Only vs. China, Iran and Italy. We're within a factor of two (that is, about 5-6 days) of everyone else.
which is accurate.
- theferalrobot 7y agoAgain not even close, France for instance has a death rate 10x ours per capita, that's gonna take way more than 5-6 days. The statement is inaccurate any way you slice it. Why use incomplete information when more is available?
- martinpw 7y agoHe didn't say per capita. The statement was accurate. It may not be a useful metric, but it was an accurate one.
- theferalrobot 7y ago> He didn't say per capita. But it's also not the case when looking only at absolute numbers either. I would also argue that per capita is implied because it's the only way you can really make that comparison.
