      Of course, every single country in Europe & North America & nearly every country Central & South America & the Caribbean & half the countries of Central Asia & the Middle East have a higher death rate than those places. Most of the developed world isn't East Asia.https://twitter.com/TimAeppel/status/1265260322832756736 …

      If the U.S. had a similar fatality rate as the average of Hong Kong and Singapore, its death toll would now stand at about 4,100, rather than 98,000 and growing. https://www.wsj.com/articles/coronavirus-doesnt-have-to-be-so-deadly-just-look-at-hong-kong-and-singapore-11590491418?shareToken=stbd2e47517399465d98133b128bc95d6a … via @WSJ

      Dan McLaughlin Retweeted David Corn

      Funny how these folks keep ignoring Europe & Canada, almost as if comparing the U.S. solely to a few East Asian countries is a deliberate political narrative https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/05/what-we-can-learn-from-coronavirus-per-capita-death-rates/ …https://twitter.com/DavidCornDC/status/1265309268145774594 …

      The Mad King rants. The United States death rate (per capita) is 50 times the South Korean death rate. Trump is looking for credit for having not done nothing so he can avoid judgment for his late and inept response. Only Trump cultists will buy this hogwash. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1265301249630654467 …

          Another fact is South Korea is effectively an island. It has ocean on 3 sides and a militarized border. America's borders has still be effectively open with people flowing back and forth, which affects things.

          By "Europe", you mean a handful of countries in Western Europe. Most European countries have done a far better job than the US, with fewer resources. You'd be hard pressed to find a comparison group that makes the US look good.

          10 countries in Europe, including some rather major ones like the UK & France. Germany's death rate is higher than Florida's. Europe as a whole is 4x the rate in Texas.

          And imagine the world where Trump, next to a somber-faced Fauci, announces on February 29 that he is suspending all flights to/from the US to Europe effective March 2, and that all states should issue shelter in place orders immediately. Dems would have called him a dictator.

          You mean the way all the republican cry babies have been calling Dem Governors for stay at home orders since they put them in place?

          Some of us just want our President to quit saying he's done a fantastic-couldn't-be-better job. I don't even need him to acknowledge his mistakes, because he won't, but I'd like for him to quit talking about the Chinese travel when its effects on today's situation are disputed.

          Although I'd agree that some, like David Corn, want to score political points more than discuss the virus.

          The UK is a shitshow, extreme right-wing Govt. The US is a shitshow, extreme right-wing Govt. Brazil is a shitshow, extreme right-wing Govt. Canada, Germany, social democracies, less than half the fatalities per capita.
