Iceland should be there as well. Over hundred cases with like 350k inhabitants if I'm not wrong. 

Btw Sweden won't test for the virus anymore even if you have the symptoms as long as you won't get hospitalized there. They pretty much gave it up and hope that people who just stay at home if they feel bad will be better than those people leaving their home. Their number of new cases should go much down from now on because of that I guess. They simply won't know most cases. 

I wonder when US will enter that list. It is so expensive to get tested in the US many won't bother and with no paid sick leave people can't afford to take time off from work. 

That's why the US won't make it to the list - too many who are not getting registered.

May I ask how much that test costs in the US?

I ran out of work today because of corona. Every single one of my clients canceled their orders because of the virus. I wonder how long this will go on, I'm not earning any money now but I doubt my landlord or the insurances will have any understanding for that, lol. I'm also pretty certain that I will not be saved by the government, because I'm just a small time freelancer. We need all dem sweet moneyz to save Lufthansa, Volkswagen and SAP!

Welp, whatever. I'm still not panicking. There's still Hartz 4 after all! =P

How about starting some Ich AG? You'd get some Fördergelder for this, which might help bridging the gap...
