Keith-

It's pure speculation based on the prior actions of the regime that runs
China, combined with a number of news articles arguing that crematorium
workers are saying they are burning 100+ bodies a day working 24/7 in Wuhan
(funerals have been banned), and that the real number of infections may be
100K+.  Taiwan's official news service also had some kind of "glitch" where
they posted counts WAY above official ones and flipped back and forth
ultimately ending with the official ones.   At the end of the day though,
I am speculating.  It would be nice if the official figures were close to
reality.
