Most recoveries are lost to follow-up. Since most people who test positive are either asymptomatic or have only very mild symptoms, and never get any worse, they aren't tracked. Only those who were very seriously ill and hospitalized would be followed long enough to be medically confirmed as "recovered."

Makes sense from that perspective, thanks. Still a little odd on the 0 thing..
