This impressive. Its been thought that the reason for Italy's high mortality was due to being the 2nd oldest population in the world. They're 2nd behind... Japan.

So what did Japan do that was so efective?

Oh man as someone from PA where they forced state nursing homes to take covid patients resulting in 70% of the deaths happening in nursing homes in my state this rings home. 70% of deaths in 500 nursing homes in the state. 70% of deaths in 500 buildings. Buildings. Not towns, cities, regions, counties, metro areas.... fucking buildings.

They didn’t test as much. Either on purpose or due to lack of resources. In any case, the lack of testing kept the number of known cases down, which then tampered the media from spreading panic. Make no mistake, this is a media-based pandemic and not a scientifically-based pandemic. The left’s call for ‘nEeD mOaR tESTiNg!’ plays into their hands because it’ll raise the number of known cases, (which they amplify in the media) while hiding the fact that the symptomatic rate is very low and overall not worth the lockdown.

Genetics, maybe the China Virus was bioengineered to be more lethal against non-Asians. India was relatively unscathed, too, so you can't say it's hygiene that prevents the China Virus.
