Wouldn’t Iran love to see the economy of the U. S. seriously damaged, and wouldn’t China too? So that the Iranian government is saying that about 20% of those with the virus have died (15 deaths they say) overstates the death rate by 5 times, and the health minister of Iran was coughing (quite theatrically) during a television interview (and was asked to cover his mouth!) reeks of gross overstatement.
