Physicians of incomplete Figures
Wendtner feared that the case numbers in the report are incomplete. Both the diagnosis, as well as in the count of the cases he looks for possible sources of error. Therefore, no clear Trend could be made of it on the future development of the Virus are derived. Wendtner not called three reasons why it is still the hoped-for reversal in the case of Corona-Virus.
1. China has difficulties in the detection of diagnostic
For one thing, he doubted that the Virus has been diagnosed in China, especially in Hubei to all who are actually ill. The Chinese reportedly have the second-the availability of evidence way removed diagnosis.
2. Many cases are not confirmed
Also in the counting and confirmation of the cases he sees a possible source of error: "In the mainland of China to be counted in addition, especially in those cases where patients are already showing symptoms of COVID-19, quite different than the WHO recommendation, according to which PCR-positive cases are then confirmed counted, even if the Patient (still shows) no symptoms."
3. There is a high dark figure
