Japans second wave of covid is nowhere near the same percentage as what Victoria is experiencing.
Just what are these percentages?
As of yesterday (13 July) Victoria has had a total of 3967 cases with 24 deaths. (population of 6.4 million)
Japan has had 21,868 cases with 982 deaths. (population of 126 million)
So Japan has twenty times the population of Victoria and forty times the deaths, five and a half times the cases.
