SL is reported to be in the lower end of the scale on the basis of testing.
SL has done 175 tests per million population while India is 332 tests per million which is expected to reach >10,000 per million in the next week.
The data shown above is invalid unless supported by a strong testing program of at least 10,000 tests per million population.
The outcome of such sloppiness is that many will die outside the health system and of course, Shavendra’s army will deal with that situation.
