Hard to say, but the issue (the one OP talked about) is BEFORE counting deaths.

Right now the same source (for Germany):

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/germany/

Has 23 "Serious or critical" people out of 41,324 cases (and the remaining 41,301 are in "Mild condition").

In Italy:

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/italy/

3,612 critical out of 62,013 total (6%).

In Spain:

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/spain/

3,166 critical out of 46,406 total (7%).

In France (seemingly much worse than Italy or Spain):

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/france/

3,375 critical out of 22,511 total (15%).

Now France's anomaly (compared to Italy and Spain) could be an undercounting (by 2x) of total cases, but the anomaly in Germany could only be explained if the actual number of cases in Spain and Italy are undercounted by 100x!

There must be something else.
