Why are we STILL so far behind?

America will surpass SK in total cases in under 5 days.

WildRose · 2020-03-16T23:46:24.762Z

Well with a major outbreak in a nursing home this isn’t exactly surprising.

The more people over 65 who are already compromised get exposed the higher the fatality rate will be.

WildRose · 2020-03-16T23:49:50.139Z

You have no possible way of knowing that to be true.

With more than six times the population and more than 15x the land mass of SK it’s pretty well inevitable that we will at some point.

America passed 1,000 cases a day.

WildRose · 2020-03-17T00:20:15.483Z

And SK’s new cases are approaching a thousand per day as well.

CanadianJudo · 2020-03-17T00:24:10.004Z

No SK is reporting around 100 cases a day now.
they are on the decline.

China is recording so few new coronavirus infections that South Korea looks...

The coronavirus is spreading in several new hot-spot countries — notably South Korea and Iran — but slowing considerably in China.

And now 4645 with 85 deaths.

so, to recap - you made a false claim and backed it up with an old link. SK new cases are currently around 100 ±.

WildRose · 2020-03-17T01:06:05.011Z

No I didn’t over 700 is approaching a thousand.

The links I provided showed exactly what I stated to be factual.

My quotes were removed? Did somebody have a problem with that? I thought they were relevant.

I think there are newer numbers then march 5th article.

No it didnt. South Korea numbers might have been approaching those numbers 11 days ago but they are no longer doing anything close

WildRose:

And SK’s new cases are approaching a thousand per day as well.

WildRose · 2020-03-17T01:37:12.672Z

They were approaching those numbers just a week ago.

They have also varied wildly from day to day in SK for the last three weeks.

The 5th is 11 days ago not “just a week”. They have been on the decline ever since
