205 counties and territories now have infections according to worldometers

I thought I’d read there were 205 countries in the world, but I guess throwing territories in there increased the number. I still don’t see Andorra listed. Unless I missed it. I’ve been watching for it, at least at one time it was considered the tiniest nation in the world. But it’s amazing how quickly it’s spread. And the US has about a quarter of the infections in the whole world. I know we don’t really know for sure due to lack of testing.
