Still Turning Trump's Beautiful Corner on the Pandemic
Not that Trump is saying anything about it.
He's still laser-focused on trying to stage a military coup and grifting off the Georgia senate races.

ReplyDeleteLast week India was in second place now they've dropped to third ,what a bunch of losers. Especially when you consider that they have 1.3 billion people . Three to four times the population of the US .
ReplyDeleteWell, at least we're back below 3K deaths per day, for now.

That Trump’s fundraising off Georgia while not spending any money there isn’t getting much play. I suspect the attitude of the press is that they know grifters gotta grift and, by this point, if you’re dumb or delusional enough to give your money to a knob con artist, that’s a you problem.
ReplyDeleteWhat is that when based on percentage of population? Then where do we stand?
ReplyDeleteTwo research letters published today in JAMA estimate excess deaths due to COVID-19 and other causes in different countries since the pandemic began, one finding a higher coronavirus death rate in the United States than in 18 other countries since early May, and the other showing that the overall US death rate rose 20% from March to August, with 67% of the excess deaths attributable to the virus.
ReplyDeleteDecentralized, inconsistent response
In the first study, researchers at Harvard and the University of Pennsylvania compared COVID-19–related death rates in the United States through Sep 19 with those in 18 other countries with populations exceeding 5 million and at least $25,000 per capita gross domestic product. They also compared rates of death from any cause for 14 countries with available data through Jul 25.
By Sep 19, the United States had recorded 198,589 COVID-19–related deaths, for a death rate of 0.06%, higher than countries with low and moderate coronavirus death rates but similar to those with high death rates. For example, the death rate in Australia, considered a low-mortality country, was 0.003%, while Canada, a moderate-mortality country, had a 0.02% death rate.
On the high-mortality end of the spectrum, Italy's COVID-19 death rate was 0.06%, while Belgium's was 0.09% throughout the pandemic. But, since May 10, the United States' rate has exceeded that of all other countries studied.

US Exceptionalism at work. We are truly a shining white city on a hill, hosanna. USA, fuck yea. Makes me as proud to be an American as when I shipped off to Vietnam. Back then we thought no leader could take the place of Nixon in history but since Bush and trump we can clearly see that our Republican American Exceptionalism has no bottom. We're number one!
ReplyDeleteWe have the infection levels and response of any third world nation. Some of those "third world's" even have lower numbers of spread and a much greater attack on the spread.
ReplyDeleteI sure don't feel like we are "Great" especially again?

Hey, look, it's B, the guy who thought Covid was no worse than the seasonal flu... And now he can't even google "covid deaths per capita" to get some accurate information for himself. The first site I looked at says the US is # for deaths per million:

As mentioned in the other comment, Canada's rate is about 1/3 the US's.
There are warnings texted out that ICU capacities are critically low, and I'm not even in the southern California area where the hospitals are really being overrun.
ReplyDeleteThis virus is no joke and nothing to fuck around with.

I giggled my self silly when I read a EMT/nurse/whatever saying
ReplyDelete"I'm not taking the vaccine". Why because he or she will likely
have to. Why?
Precedent, many medical workers were/are required to get a FLU shot, so the
employer has the option to say no shot no work (or other ways to bench
the worker).
When enough of the vaccine is out there you (Vax denier) become a vector.
That and the public may start voting with they feet/money. Or you may
still get Covid and can hope for the best and the presidential treatment
plan will be denied, you are not rich enough.
I do not want to be first due to the possible side effects but then again
I don't want to be last either.
Even with the vaccine the deniers will be out partying and spreading.
They will be a source that will spread and extend the pandemic for years.
Or they may be the host for the virus to mutate and start a new disaster.
Assuming they are working, can get on a jet or cross a border.

B ,To compare the US death total to India multiply the total deaths from the chart(323,455) times 3.5 you get 1,132,092.5 .
ReplyDeleteIf the US had as many people as India that is the number of people that you would have lost up to the time the chart was compiled .
1,132,092.5
145,513.0
