> We are at around 50,000,000 cases. Where is that number coming from? If you were talking about United States, you were off by a factor of 10! If you’re talking about the whole world, you’re still off by a factor of two! At least as far as confirmed cases goes. We can all assume the number of actual cases is greater than the number of confirmed cases. How much greater, it’s really hard to say, especially as testing has ramped up significantly and I even know Americans who are getting multiple tests with quick responses in certain locations. So you can’t just make up a number as a guess and then use it as evidence.
