Of all the numbers floating around, I would be the most skeptical of the "Recovered" numbers. Most people who are confirmed with Covid are not hospitalized but are sent home to nurse themselves back to health. Many don't even have symptoms. All the attention goes to those hospitalized. The ones sent home quietly recover and resume their life without triggering any "Recovered" statistic.
