There seems to be so much confusion

I know this is a joke.
But I'm thinking about what we knew in March of 2020. I remember watching videos coming out of China January 2020. What was coming out of there was absolutely terrifying. And then Italy got slammed hard with it.
Which makes me wonder, did the virus mutate into something somewhat less deadly?
Unless someone does an audit of what went down in Italy, we can't be sure. Here in the states the combination of paying hospitals per WUHAN VIRUS case and death, and the media reporting made it seem worse than it really was. Did something like that happen in Italy? Did they use the same PCR tests and get massive false positives? Were the deaths really from the WUHAN VIRUS, or just attributed to it because of a positive test? What is the total death rate in Italy compared to previous years?
So many factors that will probably stay hidden in the bureaucratic mess.
I certainly thought it was slamming Italy, after reading that op-ed piece by Newt Gingrich, whom I would not think would be prone to exaggeration.
