If official numbers are less than 90% off even Wuhan hasn't reached anything close to saturation yet.

That's because they took measures to stop it, same as South Korea, where the USA has not.

It will be difficult to convince the 40% of the population that measures need to be taken when that 40% thinks everything of consequence is a hoax, fake news, etc - being incited and reinforced by their Dear Leader. It's the result of a decades long undervaluing, underfunded, ignored education system.
