> The selfishness and criminal negligence of two French tourists has resulted in 400 new infections and counting, likely to result in 2-16 deaths given case fatality rates in Iceland (0.5%) and globally (4%).

Interesting. Do you have any source that corroborates that story?

Worldometers provides case history (total, current active, daily new) and calculated CFR. Calculated likely mortaality is based on this data.

It seems you didn't understood my question.

I asked for any source that substantiates your claim that a pair of French tourists were responsible for 400 infections.

You said, and I quote, "The selfishness and criminal negligence of two French tourists has resulted in 400 new infections and counting".

I asked for a source that substantiates that specific claim.

Do you have any source for that assertion?

Worldometers is one-stop shopping for the entire planet.

There are reasons aggregators are useful.
