reportedly surpassed China by climbing to 81,321 on Thursday, according to the New York Times.

“I’m sure you’re not able to tell what China is testing or not testing,” Trump said. “I think that’s a little hard.”

China only reported an additional 113 new coronavirus patients over the previous 24 hours, but Beijing’s figures have drawn skepticism in Hong Kong and elsewhere. Chinese officials changed its record-keeping methods in February so that people who test positive for coronavirus but do not display any symptoms would not be classified as confirmed cases.

“More than 43,000 people in China had tested positive for Covid-19 by the end of February but had no immediate symptoms,” the South China Morning Post reported. “They were placed in quarantine and monitored but were not included in the official tally of confirmed cases, which stood at about 80,000 at the time.”

Such a shift in calculations might explain why the number of cases in China has only risen by about 1,100 since February.

Must be correct because Trump has a track record of telling only the truth.

Well people only accept what is being fed to them. What difference does 80k made compared to a few k cases from the next nearest competitor. Can worst be any worst? Common sense tells us it makes no sense to fake numbers when it is already the WORST.

Trump at it again. Look at your own country DT. Cases are increasing in the thousand daily. And all you can do is talk about China number not being correct. Hospitals in USA are asking for help from government, but no help is coming. Instead, gov is busy bailing companies out.

Tens of thousands per day, and this is the result of "faking case count" for months, the country which rely on uni website for latest case count.

This is the result of the hyper capitalist US system. Corporations control the government.
