Numbers from the Johns Hopkins site as of 10:03 pm Eastern 02/09/20
Total cases - 40,522
Total deaths - 910
Total recovered - 3301

What is really making me question a lot about this is that the numbers, which come from the WHO, CDC, ECDC, NHC, and DXY {chinese health agency}, indicate an approximate 2.25% mortality rate, and the Chinese have admitted to a 15% mortality rate. That is a huge difference, and I'm not sure what to believe. Not sure which numbers to believe, the numbers from the officials, or from sources from inside China. There is a LOT here that is not adding up. The official story varies greatly from what is leaking out from inside, but again, I'm not sure which agency to trust.

I'm pretty sure that's fake. Look at the sentence structure, spellings, and use of contractions. It's not google translate and it reads like a native English speaker trying to fake it.

I have really appreciated the updates from cousins who are in Beijing and find them much more accurate that crap on FB.
