in my opinion 2 reasons:
1) data/number from China can't be trusted, all data and information to the outside world is controlled by the Chinese Party, I personally don't believe their official numbers of infections and deaths.
Can't be proved at the moment, but like myself a lot of people think the numbers in China were or are much higher than the released ones
2)Late measures/late response to contain the spread
The other reason for such high cases in EU and US are because no one took this seriously at the beginning, most of Idiotic people that are ruling the countries didn't recognize early enough the severity of the case.
For example Idiot Trump said some months ago the virus would die with the change of season, during the summer.
(for the last 5 days there's more than 1000 people dying in the US everyday due to Covid19)
Or Idiot Boris that only applied measures in the UK, 9 days after all the EU countries were already in lockdown. In 9 days the exponential spread is tremendous. And 9 days after other EU countries that were already late, at least by 1 week, in applying a lockdown
Italy was the first country in the EU to be severely affected, they might not be expecting it then, but after Hospitals in Italy collapsed and even after the Italy experience some EU countries were not doing anything.
That's the case with Spain and France,.
Idiot Sanchez had more than 5000 confirmed cases in Spain, people in Spain were still eating tapas and drinking beer in the street restaurantes, and he was not doing anything. He only applied lockdown more than 1 week after the Italians Hospital colapse.
In France, Idiot Macron and Philippe held elections in France on the 15th of March despite their confirmed cases number being already high and despite the Italian example 1 week before.
