There are a few of us on this forum that have been in a position to see how things really are and how they get reported. Trust me, you probably really don't want to know the unvarnished truth.

Oh yeah, being in the military will open your eyes wide open. Don't be a fool. Believe half of what you see and none of what you hear. Someone always has an agenda.

When I worked for the DoD back in the 70's. There was chit going on that other branches of gov't or anyone else didn't know on what was going on. When I left. I had to sign a stack of NDA's. Leavenworth is not appealing.

I live right down the road from the DB at Leavenworth. I get annual in-person visits, in addition to the NDAs I had to sign.

I've haven't had to talk to anyone in a while. Hopefully they forgot about me.

In reading about the number of deaths in each country. Each country is using different methods of determining on how a person has died. Some countries are not reporting deaths caused by the virus if the person had other health issues. China is one of them. That why their deaths are so low. Estimates put the death toll around 48,000.

That’s nothing to crow about. Your colleagues in the 2000s phoned me up to ask what the difference was between magnetic north and true north. No wonder you guys couldn’t shoot straight

Recalling a scene from M*A*S*H where Winchester is threatened with court-martial (April fools joke by Potter & friend): "Leavenworth. MY GOD, THAT'S IN KANSAS!" LOL

Italy is not counting undiagnosed deaths from people who are afraid to go to hospital and then die at home. Nor are they doing tests post-mortem for people who come to hospital and die before treatment. A hospital administrator in Lombardia estimated the death toll to be more than 4x the official number. TO HAMMER THAT POINT HOME, NEARLY 4,000 PEOPLE A DAY ARE ACTUALLY DYING OF THIS IN ITALY.

I suspect that it will be the same elsewhere (Spain, the UK, Germany and even parts of the US and Canada, although not as bad on this continent yet).

There needs to be a standard on these statistics. Here, if you die in a car accident (or any other way) and they find the virus in your system, youre counted as a corona virus statistic.

Well, for someone from Bahston (or however they pronounce it), going to Kansas is like being exiled to BFE.

There ain't much here outside of cows and wheat fields......

What about someone who commits suicide in fear of the virus but tests negative post mortem? I think that should count as a corona virus statistic.
