Coronavirus spreads. But don't panic! (topical thread)

[SYZ]

For those who are appalled at the number of Covid-19 deaths in the U.S. (94,566), the next 3 highest countries (UK, Italy, France) have a comparable number of deaths among them (96,828).

I'm actually appalled at all of those figures.

~ .0195% of U.S. population killed by Covid-19

~ .05% of UK+Italy+France population killed by Covid-19, 2½ times the death risk...

And Australia?  Percentage of population killed by the virus = 0.0004% or nearly 50 times
less than the US. On that basis alone Chas, I can't agree with your assertion that "The death
rate in the US isn't looking quite so horrific."

Yes it is mate, I'm sorry to say.     And largely attributable to the tanned buffoon.
