It won't be hard to figure out if the numbers are overstated, or understated. The truth will come out. The average number of people who die each day/week/month etc is pretty constant and predictable at about 8000/day for all causes. The numbers I'm seeing are showing about 10% more dead per day on average since Jan1, so call it another 800 per day. Today is the 147th day of 2020. 147X800=117,600


Will be interesting to see what actions are taken against China on this.
