All these East Asian countries seem to be reporting far lower deaths than anyone else. I don't believe their numbers, China, S. Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam and Japan. That's like 1.7 billion people and yet the sum of all their deaths might be about the same as Florida's with their 21-22 million people. There's definitely lying going on among countries either inflating or claiming they have fewer cases/deaths.

Not sure who downvoted you. This is the correct conclusion.

Exactly, they probably didn't change their method of determining the cause of death

Well, with no one getting or dying of the flu, I'd say our numbers are way overinflated. This would explain the wide variety of COVID symptoms and severity. Most may be having only a regular cold or flu.

I suggested our numbers might be (and most certainly are) inflated in the post your responding to. There's so little information that's trustworthy right now.

It's big business to keep Americans fat. 43% of adults are obese! 43%!

Taiwan did the restrictions on foreign visitors especially from China very early. That's what western countries should do but instead your leftards keep whining about muh xenophobia at the time.

Taiwan is a no bullshit state. Granted, they can't afford bullshit with China encroaching.

America just had it too soft and grew fat.

Does that mean we get to use this as an East Asian suprmacist argument? Because there's a lot of ninnies that would fold this into a race obsessed narrative if Taiwan were populated by eurotrash.

Half a million people in the US died with COVID aka the flu and gunshot wounds, blind trauma, cancer, heart attack, or just old age...

They are not telling the truth and all you need to do is dig into the IDC10 data.

78% of people that were overweight or obese. Being fat and unhealthy makes you vulnerable. Asian countries on average are far healthier. This isn't rocket science. Look at the amount of fat people in areas hit hardest.
