...but I don't believe the 18.8%.
I'm quite convinced there are highly populated countries that are GROSSLY underreporting cases & deaths.
I don't believe numbers out of Russia, China, India, or Brazil. That's almost 3.15 billion people.
That's doesn't excuse the terrible response here, but I think the % of deaths is much lower than 18.8%
