nick no offense but please learn to read a spreadsheet

america has among the lowest death rate for an infected person. canada is slightly higher. they're both at around 6%, despite the high number of total infections -- which is caused by a large population... not a lack of appropriate response.

the european countries listed are mostly death rates from 12-15%

the number of infected people per 1m population is pretty much in the same range no matter where you live, at least if we look at the countries which seem to be reporting reliable numbers. this means it doesn't matter where you live, your chance of getting infected is about the same. but your chance of dying outside of the US or Canda is twice as high in most cases!

if you are infected with corona virus, america is one of the places you WANT to be if you want to have the best odds of survival. don't take my word for it. look at the spreadsheet yourself. see the two columns on the right? those are the important ones.

saying america has among the worst responses is just... completely misguided.
