Unfortunately garbage-in -> garbage-out.

That chart shows US at 233 confirmed cases.

According to NYT, over 10x that number are self-quarantined in NYC alone [1].

Now it's technically true that those cases aren't medically 100% factually confirmed, because NYC has only performed 35 tests total so far. But it gives a very inaccurate picture of reality. Garbage in, garbage out.
