Which governments can we trust for accurate COVID 19 data?

[redstateblues]

The US? China? Russia? Iran? The European countries seem to be trustworthy. I'll bet the US number of reported cases is a tenth of what the truth is. I don't trust China either.

1. At this point, I would say any but our own.

Sad day in America. We have to get news from other countries and learn anything at all about this pandemic by reading what medical personnel in other countries are saying, because our own medical personnel are gagged and dared by Trump not to tell us the truth.

Any country but out own at this point is probably the most correct answer.

2. You can trust US states with a Democratic governor.

All of them to my knowledge are doing their best to keep the public informed to the absolute best of their abilities. If there is one who is not doing that, please let us know.

I do not trust any single Republican, not even DeWine, to tell us the truth.

7. Yes, that is who I trust, my Blue State Gov Newsom.

Half of CA could be infected in 8 weeks.

3. Seems like BBC is more forthcoming . . .

We are getting insane run arounds from shithole and comrades along with so called journalist at the every day looks at me briefing with soft ball questions, mostly, with rightwing non journalist, and also get no important information whatsoever.

Bottom line, many of the governors prove that they are leaders and do care about the USA and her people.

4. I don't trust the numbers coming out of Red States.

Suppression to protect their great leader.

5. Germany, Scandinavia. Their governments are mostly sane and competent.

Those countries wouldn't have any more info about our system, though, since our own government doesn't have it because there are no fucking tests.

6. I think our numbers reflect accurate testing results.

However, since we're testing so pathetically few people, the actual active cases are likely quite higher. Especially since it appears that asymptomatic spreaders are a thing.

The only numbers I'm fairly skeptical of are those from Russia.

8. South Korea nt

9. Estimates I've seen range from 2% to 10%

We're just not testing enough to have a handle on how many cases there are.

[EllieBC]

10. South Korea.

That would be the only one, IMO.

11. The US numbers

will be more reliable once sufficient testing has been done. In the meantime, I trust South Korea, Italy, France and Germany.

Iran, China, and Russia, not so much.
