[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Italy now has the second highest case count, having surpassed South Korea today.

Italy: 7,375 cases   366 deaths

South Korea: 7,313 case	50 deaths[/quote]

What is up with the mortality rate disparity?! It will be very interesting to see how the data rolls out - age, general health, smoking, etc. [/quote]

It's likely more functional and better trained medical care. South Korea has an ace health care system. COVID-19 is going to come as a nasty surprise to people who think that "western" is inherently superior.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Healthcare_in_South_Korea

South Korea DOES practice Western medicine - they are easily on par with the US.[/quote]

they are heads and shoulders BETTER than the US.  I didn't mean "western" as in medical vs. eastern medicine.  I meant it as in, white European.  Americans will be shocked to find out how sh*tty our healthcare system is compared to Korea and maybe even China. [/quote]
