death rate in China ex-hubei: 0.3 percent.

Death rate outside of China: 0.3 percent.

What is being under counted is the number of infected in Hubei, not the number of deaths in China ex-Hubei

The death count outside of China is only 1. The 0.3 percent outside of China is not a robust number.

What if the death count were 0? Would it be even less robust?
