Analysis by Keith Rankin. We get a very biased picture of which countries have had the most experience of Covid19. It’s because the mainstream media almost never adjust their figures for population. So, in June, we keep hearing about United States and Brazil, but that’s mainly because they are very populous countries. It’s also because they ... <a title="Keith Rankin’s Chart Analysis – Covid19: Summary of Covid19 Incidence as of mid-June 2020" class="read-more" href="https://eveningreport.nz/2020/06/25/keith-rankins-chart-analysis-covid19-summary-of-covid19-incidence-as-of-mid-june-2020/" aria-label="Read more about Keith Rankin’s Chart Analysis – Covid19: Summary of Covid19 Incidence as of mid-June 2020">Read more</a>
