Look, we can only debate about confirmed cases. You can speculate as to whether there are more or less undetected in one country or another but that's just going to be a bunch of hypothetical posturing leading nowhere.

A country 1/7 our size has done 25x the testing.

If you don't think that affects how our numbers net out, I'm not sure we can have a rational discussion beyond here.
