... that Germany busted all their testing the first month / 2 and didn't reproduce.

The death rate in German is a 10th what it is in other comparable countries with similar infection rates and populations.

Germany is doing something different

They had no way to prepare for something they didn't know existed six months ago.

I verily disagree, the world had a play book and there were a number of countries that responded to the WHO warnings and got busy with test after Jan

I'm still looking at S Korea and Taiwan for instance, those countries took the WHO warnings seriously and got busy with testing right away
