How reliable are the numbers then.

Remember, that report came from the same source most people would call a credible source. The same source that gives us most of what we think we know, namely mainstream media.

The numbers don't make sense.

How can it be that North America has more infections then southeast Asia has?

Southeast Asia population density = 154 per Km2
North America population density = 20 per Km2

Southeast Asia total infections = 7 335 273
North America total infections = 8,746,953

Some might say there is less testing in southeast Asia, I don't buy that as an explanation.
If they can estimate with any accuracy for north America they certainly do the same for any part of the Globe.
The reality is, unless we see the data set, we simply don't know.

It's an article, keep that in mind.

As far as I'm concerned you can see what I'm basing my perspective on in my previous post. I use official government info. That seems to be, at least, credible - certainly moreso compared to everything else you see out there.
