    Where did you get that? This source shows less than that in the world:

    Looks like stories are being run with Wuhan locals (just random people, not doctors) saying it must've been 40,000. Not sure that's a reliable number...

    Thanks. I’m certainly not surprised. It sounds like a lot of lines of evidence that point to a sad truth. It sure would have been nice if the Chinese were honest about this to help the rest of the world appreciate the situation.

    The Johns Hopkins tracker I've been using is showing a pretty substantial drop in new cases from 3/27 to 3/28. Could just be a blip, but hopefully it's a good sign that we might see some decline (or at least leveling off) in the number of new cases/day.

    Is anyone else getting really tired of being part of a historical event?

    Personally, I preferred watching the moon landing.

    Yeah, it's the only think people talk about, I've had to explain so much to my Dad (he's the perfect practice for dealing with non-compliant patients to be honest), and all you see on social media, etc. unfortunately don't think there's going to anything that changes this for a while though :/

    I saw that as well. Based on what we are seeing now this seems more reliable that the initial numbers we saw from China. The big question would be what the true number of infected people was. It seems its obviously quite a bit more than the ~80K that they initially reported.
