I don't know what percentage of either population was "wiped out" by disease from the other source. In fact, NOBODY KNOWS. There is plenty of unsubstantiable speculation. The numbers one derives come mostly from one's preconceptions, not from actual data.
Who were the census takers in Europe?
Who were the census takers in pre-Columbian North America?
