Socio Posted September 19, 2021 #1 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Why Does Communist China Have One of the Lowest COVID Rates? Quote So let’s look at the numbers adjusted for population. Remember China and India are the largest nations in terms of population (i.e., China 1,439,323,776 and India 1,396,420,400). According to WorldOMeter, China has had 95,623 total COVID cases since the outbreak. . That is 66 cases per 1 million population. Deaths per 1 million population is 3. Hell, that does not even qualify as an epidemic. *** India, which shares a border with China and has roughly the same number of inhabitants, has 33,447,010 cases. That works out to 23,952 per 1 million population. India’s fatalities from COVID are 319 per 1 million population. One hundred times more people have died in India than in China. *** With the China and India numbers in mind, you will now understand how shocking the numbers are for the United States. The United States as of today (September 18, 2021) counts 42,844,035. That is 128,525 per million. We have almost ten million more than India. And compared to China? We have 448 times the number of cases. The differential in deaths is equally staggering–691,313, which is 2,074 per 1 million in population. In other words, we have seven times the deaths that India has recorded and 70 times the deaths in China. We are on worse off with infections than Mexico. Sounds like everything we are doing is the exact opposite of what we should be doing. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Phantom_Stranger Posted September 19, 2021 #2 Share Posted September 19, 2021 I can come up with a few ideas 1. That China created this virus and was so prepared to handle it. 2. So many of these plagues come out of China that they take it seriously and act fast and severe. 3. China was the first to notice it and the first to act, so they have less of it. 4. It is a biological weapon designed for other countries not itself. 5. China is a more uniform country, less diverse, so it cooperates better during crisis. 6. Communism and the lack of freedoms just gives better security. 7. China is economically better than some of these other countries. 8. Combined reasons. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lightly Posted September 19, 2021 #5 Share Posted September 19, 2021 How about this?....China and India are both HUGE land masses with huge populations spread out all over them .. I suspect that the majority of covid cases are clustered in the major cities?...where a lesser percentage of the total populations live? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spartan max2 Posted September 19, 2021 #11 Share Posted September 19, 2021 I'd say 1) China makes numbers to to try and look good, some kind of nationalism thing. 2) I think asian nations in general had a headstart with their culture already being pretty accustomed to wearing mask. 3) totalitarian nations can do whatever they want to their people. So like the stories of apartments being locked down by armed soldiers and such. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like everything we are doing is the exact opposite of what we should be doing. All that is needed to eliminate coronavirus from the planet is a 3 week total planetwide lockdown. Not the lockdowns we have. Ones were each household is given 2 weeks of food and water, then sealed inside their homes. China did that in several of its cities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Phantom_Stranger Posted September 19, 2021 #21 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Don't you think that hoping they completely lied about the numbers is optimistic? Not a planning for the worst case scenario that they just did better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LV-426 Posted September 19, 2021 #22 Share Posted September 19, 2021 If anyone believes that China has had only 107,912 Covid cases and 4,849 deaths (JHU) in a population of 1,446,069,655 (Worldometer), especially with the - allegedly - sudden onset from a wet market, they probably also believe that Justin Bieber is the apex of musical creativity 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orphalesion Posted September 19, 2021 #23 Share Posted September 19, 2021 The same way North Korea doesn't have any cases at all. They lie. Though form what I read (if it is true) their ways of containing the virus/infected people were a lot more brutal than what would be possible in the West. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you believed that, you deserve Florida and your numbers. Just because China took this seriously, seriously enough, you make this a war of propaganda, as if that's gonna help anybody, most of all yourself. This is a "new" virus It means nobody knows what the hell it can really do, you might want to take it lightly but we know the science to wanna not take chances. ~ 4 hours ago, Abramelin said: O No indeed, the Chinese love to fk other countries in the rear.

If you want to make imperialistic strategies, might be helpful if get the facts and history factually correct. ~ Quote Why are you always so defensive when China is the topic? Because there are more attacks on facts when China is the topic? You think I'm defending China? You believe China needs me to defend China from this kind of nonsense? I just want to be clear that I'm not associated with this kind stupidity. ~ Quote You're a crypto-communist? Not even a miner, and or anything politically associated.
