India's hospital system is socialized. The same type of garbage healthcare system democrats want to bring to the US. The only reason they could not handle all the people coming in to be tested and isolation protocols that took up extra hospital beds is because their healthcare system. If the US starts using third world healthcare systems, then expect third world quality of care.
Not to mention, India's hospital system is socialized. The same type of garbage healthcare system democrats want to bring to the US.

Prior to COVID-19, India had around 30,000-40,000 deaths/day. With an incidence of 10% in the population, 3,500 "COVID deaths" could be entirely explained simply by testing for COVID when people enter the hospitals. Like the US India counts "COVID deaths" as people who die after testing positive for COVID, not necessarily people who die because of COVID.
Nobody cares. Fauci got caught having funded the lab that created the virus, now the CDC changed how they count COVID cases to make it disappear. Just end this performance. Game over.
Several doctors from India have told me to multiply govt figures by x3 to get an estimate of the actual impact. How true is this
What is misleading?. I am on the ground and we are seeing significant fall in the hospitalization rates. We have empty ICU beds now compared to two week ago. So yes numbers are falling. While data may not be entirely exact but ballpark numbers are correct. Going by what We are seeing on the ground.
China is misleading the world
The article and the figures you might have read in it, are about India.
This is so misleading
