I get info from WHO, just making it clear they're not my only source. If I had to choose just one, sure WHO is great. Nobody has the "real" numbers for China so it's moot.
[Edit: I also didn't get my suspicion of China's numbers from him or anyone in particular; I follow China a lot and it's my own conclusion. In January I personally saw packed hospitals and dozens of dead bodies in twitter videos, and it's not exactly easy or safe to get those videos out.]
Maybe I've just been following the topic a lot more than other people. I can understand not having time for it. I have a respiratory condition, and live with an elderly person, so I actually worked my last day as a barista today in order to eliminate public contact. Where I am the virus probably won't come for a couple to a dozen weeks, if ever, but it's still a precaution I can afford to take so I did (I can consult from home).
Also I love tinfoil hats, thank you <3 (Sorry for the long thread, kinda hoping we get collapsed)
