    On a regional map...

    from this article: https://www.theguardian.com/worl…

    • Idk, the spread seems random af
      ********
    • Look at Greece numbers, between Italy and Turkey...how can that be explained?!
      ********
    • Greece population is about 10 million, spread out across the Agean. Italy / Turkey must be 50-60million?Fax_Benson
    • but yeah, so much of it seems to be random - at the moment anyway. And Trump has a point about number of tests increasing case numbers.Fax_Benson
    • Greece, somewhat like NZ, isn't a hub in any sense - it's an end destination. One of the reasons UK has such a high # is because of this.Nairn
    • I tried to compare population density vs. size of country vs. measures taken, the numbers still don't make sense
      ********
    • @Fax you're right, the numbers won't ever match a model until every person will be tested, but that'd be almost impossible for a while
      ********
    • About Trump, that point seems valid at first, but it's rather not, not every test is positive, not by far!
      ********
    • Anyway, since peak March 20% new cases, we are overall down to 2% new cases and still dropping, even a week after lockdowns lifted
      ********
    • Italy has a culture of infantilised teens who all fled universities in the north to go visit family homes with Nonni living there.Nairn
    • There're so many sad tales of kids skipping home through quarantine and then inadvertantly killing their grandparents :(Nairn
    • In US 0.5% in Germany 0.3% in Italy, Spain, France 0.2%
      ********
    • You'll need at least 8 days after lockdown's lifted to see any change in RnNairn
    • @Nairn seems right yeah, but here in RO we test about 12K with avg 200 new cases daily since start of May, even in lockdown and a week after now...
      ********
    • Anyway, overall we're avg 1.2% new cases, this spread points to stopping in under a month at this rate. What we'll do after this, second wave, next year = ???
      ********
    • Eestern Europe is nyet exeest? Or is nyet hyev creynaveerus?Projectile
    • All we can do until we have solution - presumably vaccination - is ride the fucker out. We are now more than ever but ants to our system.Nairn
    • butt ants?
      wtf are they, and how do i avoid them?!
