So you're just going to ignore the randomized antibody tests they did in Italy and Spain?

  Sometimes, some situations are just not representative and we don't always know the reason. For example, mortality might have been higher because of inadequate care at the highest of the pandemic. Or there might be some genes that are prevalent or absent in the population that are specific to the region that make the virus behave differently than for the rest of the world.

  Indeed Spain is the most interesting outlier. One of the world's best health systems, but still an pretty high IFR, much higher than all its neighbors. Will need a few more weeks to explain that. Haven't even heard some ideas why. I'm more watching genetics, maybe their strand was very different.
