That, I have no idea about. Considering their proximity to China, they should be overrun with cases but they aren't reporting those kind of numbers.

Not really. Between India and China you have a little barrier called the Himalayas. Additionally, they are major adversaries both in business and in border disputes. China's global ambitions aren't playing well in India and we are becoming beneficiaries of it.

I wouldn't have thought of it either - it's early a.m. here, too early to think!

We're overcounting, they're undercounting. Their cases shot up after they postponed the Olympics. They were obviously supressing numbers. That said they're the cleanest people, maybe on Earth, so them having less cases than us is not surprising.

That's probably correct, about the Olympics, as no government will tell the complete truth of the situation.

But they have always been a clean people. That said, the Japanese population has been ravaged by epidemics such as cholera for centuries until their population was introduced to modern hygiene techniques during our occupation after WWII. Personal hygiene can only do so much without modern water ans sewage systems.
