  • Are the case numbers reported by John Hopkins real? Do they follow Benford's Law? I explain what Benford's Law is and what can it tell us about Covid 19 data?

    Maybe it's important to mention that Benford's law only applies when numbers span several orders of magnitude. Numberphile has a pretty good video on it which also explains why the effect happens.

      Covid is a perfect case for it. Just more proof of the fraud as if we needed more...

    you should study by country. this global verification is a waste of time.

    For a relatively small sample size like ~200, you’re almost guaranteed to have some decent deviation. I was surprised it came as close as it did to the Benford numbers.

    Great stuff, is there a way to further narrow down where the discrepancies came from?

    Looks to me like you’ve got mostly solid data with maybe a few countries effecting it with false numbers
