Yeah. The more people you test, the lower the CFR will drop.
The problem is that even with a low CFR, the deaths are still going to be there just because this thing is spreading like a wildfire through gasoline-soaked grasslands.
The good news is that on a individual basis, GENERALLY speaking, your chances of dying by contracting this thing are probably much closer to the German numbers than the Italian.
