You say there is three million cases worldwide, by your count the US has half the worlds cases.
Nobody knows the cases in most countries so they are not added to the world total.
The cases that are added to the totals are proven cases.
Your figures are misleading and therefore dangerous.
Onehundred80, my number of 3 million worldwide Coronavirus cases was 2 weeks old, and I stand corrected on that. Today’s John Hopkins total is 4,798,000, making the US death rate 30% of world total, not 50% as you said.

Adding to the fact 4 things about reported data on Coronavirus.
#1) everyone knows worldwide reporting is extreamly inaccurate and misleading.
#2) CDC freely admits that cause of death claims are not to be believed.
#3) each day more Americans are tested across the country leading to a mortality rate of less that 1.5%
#4) I don’t know how you can say the cases that are added to the totals are proven cases. CNN report that ??
