Some probably aren't.

The Chinese would starve a million people if they had too.

I don’t say this in a braggedocious way. But it’s true. I’ve been right about everything.

China was practically barricading people in their homes.

This is the one time you could use "literally" unironically.

They literally welded people inside their homes.

Or as others have said
"less restrictions/precautions. And no warning signs"

No, exit from China was because of all this.

I don't get the doomsday math.

China has 3200 deaths in MUCH worse conditions with less restrictions/precautions. And no warning signs. Let's round up to 4000. And they have a billion people.

So 4000 deaths would be 1 in 250,000 dead in China. Correct? So I don't get the doomsday math on the huge number of potential deaths in U.S. We're going to HUGE multiples of the deaths they had in China?

What am I missing?

I think this is the math everyone is afraid of, the number of available beds vs number of people who need them

As yet another example of how the communist party has supressed and manipulated virus information from the very beginning, back in December it ordered its laboratories to conceal early data on the virus that could have been of immense help to the world.

To believe anything that now comes out of China is willful idiocy: GAG ORDER

A million? They let tens of millions starve during the Great Leap Forward.

If there is one thing that has surprised me thru this entire ordeal is how many people believe China. A lot, A LOT, of you need to do some more reading on China before you post.

You can trust them. LeBron vouched for them.

The Chinese data is unreliable.

Yep. Pretty safe to put a couple of zeros at the end of that number.
