That makes a nice theoretical story but fortunately that rate of spread and death rate don't match reality. If you really believe it does, no wonder some of you are so outraged at those who would question authority.
Unless we test a large percentage of the population we will never know the real numbers. Early on, when S Korea started to test it was reported when no action was taken the number infected was doubling every 3 days.
Put a buck on the **** table, let it ride and make 20 straight passes.
