I'm not saying UK is doing better, I'm saying good care doesn't explain low death rate
Explain Germany's INCREDIBLY low death rate
Levi Campbell

Germany falsifies numbers.
There is no possibility that small Netherlands and Switzerland would have more deaths.
They probably have different definition if someone has an underlying contition it is counted as a cause of death
John Taylor
Depends on how they count. Italy so far had only 2 people who died OF corona virus (no other pathology) and not just WITH corona virus.
John Cox
Is Germany the only country that doesn't test post mortem? And even if you don't, you don't need a post-mortem for a death from one of the dozen thousnads of confirmed coronavirus infected cases.

It's just the people who traveled to Italy who are sick now. Wait until it gets into retirement homes.
Adam Robinson
Doubt Germany is the only big Western country going against the international guidelines, but if you have a source for that please share

Look at this pdf:
rki.de
Those were the total confirmed cases in each Landkreis when it was still around 7000. Forgot to mention that only very few of the cases are old people.

Today a guy died in a nursing home - they did test him post-mortem and he was positive, so they evacuated a couple more elderly people from the home.
Deaths are going to significantly increase once the hospitals start refusing patients from nursing homes (could be in 10 days, maybe 2 weeks). They're starting to dump no-critical patients (regule, not corona) from hospitals into nursing homes now to free up beds.
It'll be a wild ride
