I merely used the numbers that are reported and did the math making no effort to take into account any other factors. Yes, I fully realize there are myriad factors that will enter the picture that haven't yet been considered such as severity of the lockdown, face covering, reporting of asymptomatic cases, etc. In time the important contributing factors will need to be taken into account for a more accurate analysis and assessment regarding the effectiveness of each nation's response - what worked and what didn't work.
