COVID-19 estimates
Specific to COVID-19 in Egypt, there is a large gap between confirmed cases (~200) and an estimate by a Canadian research of perhaps 6,000 but as high as 19,000 or higher. In time, the government count will increase and the Canadian estimate will become outdated. Egypt is not unique to under-reporting (the U.S.! by President Trump!!). Only after tens of millions of tests are being administered worldwide will truer numbers appear. There will not be any reason why a country with a large tourist industry should underestimate extent of disease, as it will be the tourists who are the risk.
