The second thing to remember is that though there's incredibly huge urban cities throughout India, a lot of the times of small villages with poor access to water, health, etc. do still exist. I personally don't see the government going into these areas and taking an accurate representation/report of whether these people contracted this virus or not. If I were to assume why it's so controlled in India, I'd say it's just not being reported properly. Though the health care system has improved throughout India, there's still a reason why a lot of Indian people want to migrate to America to practice medicine there. The resources are better in America, it's just simply a fact. Think of all your cousins that have moved over to practice here, etc. I wouldn't think that the Indian government would have the things that America has (speaking of N95 respirators, quarantined hospital areas, enough beds, etc.) in place, and America still dropped the ball on this thing.
If this was obvious, then I am oblivious.Quote:
