Which is better than 8 Western European countries on a 'per 100,000' ration of the population.
The number of cases and deaths per 100,000 population is better than Western Europe as well.
USA rocks!

America's population is bigger than all of those countries put together. Even The New York Times isn't that deceptive. They said a better comparison is with Western continental Europe. And on that basis, it turns out, there are many thousands more cases in countries not run by Trump.

But even that's not the whole picture because the number of cases statistic actually measures the number of tests. So, why don't we compare what really matters - how many lives are being lost.

There's the actual data, Johns Hopkins deaths per 100,000. America has the least bad outbreak of any major country apart from Germany. And as some have noted, if you take the New York metro area out of it, the rest of America is close to Germany.

Don't be silly, it's Trump's fault for the entire world, not just the U.S....duh!

How many charts did you click through until you found one that fit your bias?

How many charts did you click through until you found one that fit your bias?

The same amount of time that you took to find the one that fit your bias!

Probably less.

I looked at the bottom of the post and like most sites, it had a link and I looked for deaths because that's really what is important.
This is the order I consider for importance:
1) Deaths
2) Cases
3) Serologic tests
4) PCR (polymerise chain reaction) tests

Uhhhh might want to check those models buddy. Your numbers say different.

And by their own admission the USA death rate is trumped up.

It could just as easily be under-reported although less likely.
Too much incentive for hospitals to over-report.

The one thing we know for certain is ... it's not accurate.

And that’s the bad part. Like the old saying garbage in garbage out.

By not properly reporting they’re ensuring we never really know the truth.

What the is "new normal"?

 

[PT Car Washer]

the experts whom you like to quote when it fits your political narrative, predicted 2 million deaths in the US. He shut down chinese flights and shut down the country when those same experts said they needed to do so. We've now become a supplier to the world for respirators. He has mobilized the private sector like we have never ever seen before. He far exceeded the demands that the states said they would need fullfilled. So yes there are legitimate reasons for him to boast.

Fake news.

Have to go through TSA check points at the airport.
You have to take off your shoes.
You have to wear a mask out in public.

What would PCR have to do with RNA? Please, enlighten me. I need some hope.

How is the COVID-19 Virus Detected using Real Time RT-PCR?

A more advanced test but the rational is there.

That's the official name of the RNA test.
