The mortality rate is, to be really conservative, 1%.
Population of America is 330 million (rounded)
So that would give a death rate due to this pandemic of 3.3 MILLION !!!
While the USA is currently way under that number, it's not due to careful management or virus control.
The distributed nature of the population has played a huge hand in this, have a closer look at the population centers and how hard they have been hit.
Your "health service" is buckling under the pressure caring for Covid cases.
So our death number should, in your view, be around 3 mil, and yet is less than 1/10 of that, but we can't credit our "management or virus control" since it's due to our "distributed...population"? So you are saying that states like South Dakota, Wyoming, and Montana should be doing very well? I would suggest you look at those states for yourself. They are struggling like everyone else. Our management and control, all things considered, has been about as good as could be expected. Not nearly as rigid as the three European countries I mentioned, but they are spiking as well, so it just seems to be true that this virus is highly contagious and there is not much to be done to stop it. It can be slowed down some, but not stopped until we get to a vaccine which should, by all that's right, be named the Donald J. Trump vaccine.
