    Prediction:

    By April 1st (i.e. sometime in the next five days): the US will have a higher number of confirmed (reported) cases of COVID-19 than China.

    • Possibly, but we still don't know how accurate China's numbers are.SteveJobs
    • ^ this.Krassy
    • That's why I added "reported"nb
    • And you don't KNOW that China is lying.nb
    • Also, we know in the USA that most people – even those with symptoms who show up at a hospital – are not being tested at this time.nb
    • So we can be certain our numbers aren't accurate, either.nb
    • With testing in NYC, they should already know which borough, which neighborhood, street, stores and shops this came from.robotron3k
    • Not sure that has anything to do with what I'm talking about.nb
    • Regardless, all NYC hospitals are refusing tests to people with mild symptoms. Most of those cases recover on their own, they will likely never be tested.nb
    • What nb said.monospaced
    • Damn, can't believe I said Apr 1st. Could hit this sometime tomorrow...nb
    • Why would anyone assume China is more likely to lie about the total of Corona cases than the US?CyBrainX
    • Because they're China, that's what they do.monospaced
