This is an excellent take if you assume the author is intentionally modeling in the introductory comments the type of bad thinking he debunks in the rest of the piece. (See "squandered," which is like "botched.")https://twitter.com/AndreasShrugged/status/1292179812304527361 …

So Korea. 50 million people. 304 deaths. Vietnam borders China, 90 million population, 10 deaths. Not rocket science. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/south-korea/ …

That's the low awareness, fake news take, that we can compare any of these countries and doing so is easy and obvious.

How so? Ignoring what works in other countries, even ones who started off poorly as we did, is easy, and wrong.https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/23/opinion/us-italy-coronavirus.html …

Common error to think you can compare apples and oranges. Too many variables to isolate leadership decisions. Countries that did everything "right" are getting second waves.

Yes, and dealing with these waves. Unlike the USA, where the only "plan" is whatever Trump thinks will get him re-elected. The irony is this not only costs lives every day, it loses him votes, and seats in Congress. We are not so different from Italy or Germany. Or Canada.pic.twitter.com/pUJ0twEmMz

I wouldn't trust any data on this topic, literally. But just for fun, check out the countries with early HCQ compared to non-users or light users. If you want to believe some charts, that'll red pill you fast. (And I don't believe any of the charts.)

Gee, did Germany, with 20% of out death rate, use hcq? No. Canada? Vietnam? New Zealand? No. They used sensible precautions, and asked discipline of their people to this day. They take it seriously, and respect this virus And it worked. Hcq may be a help, but is not the only way.

Germany was a heavy HCQ user at the start, but quietly. All data on this topic is wrong, misleading, out-of-date, or out of context. Those countries can't be compared, and expect new waves to hit them before it is over. Already happening to other "successful" countries.
