Russia, France, Spain and the U.K. each day post similar covid positive cases.
Spain and France presently have more than twice the number of persons in critical care, as does the U.K.
Quite recently the U.K. was posting very high numbers of covid positive cases.
I think that as the U.K. tests very many more persons, than any other country in Europe, that we must be recording people who have very, very mild symptoms.
The opposite of this coin is that hardly anybody is tested in France, unless they are very sick.
If I am right in my thinking, then France probably has many more cases than they admit to.
In short we are singing from different hymn sheets.
