The Coronavirus

[Bob Butler 54]

I found a site with statistics by country on the Coronavirus.  They had a column of deaths per 1M population, among many others.  Now, this is an alternate way of looking at things from the way the coastal media generally presents it.  They generally show total deaths or total cases, without accounting for the size of the country.  This one might be more like gun deaths.  In order to compare countries, you have to take into account the country’s size.  A much reduced version in deaths per million…

China: 2
France: 241
Germany: 42
Italy: 348
UK: 178
USA: 79

If you look at it this way, the US comes out OK, where some European countries do not.  China… is just big.  It has a very large population.  I can see, though, why some are looking at their numbers and raising eyebrows.
