TIL all people in the United States are uniformly distributed. TIL population distribution also accounts for international travel.

Guess that's the quality of the French school system. Maybe we don't have it so bad after all.


It's not even the population distribution, it's the age struture, climate and number of indoor vs outdoor jobs.

Covid risk only ramps up in age-groups 60+, and only reaches really high levels at 70+. African countries which have almost no residents at this age will obviously see far less deaths than the Western world with its geriatric population.

Based on those numbers that isn't the case. The % death is almost the same between the two groups, so the reason their numbers stayed so low is because it never reached a level of community spread, which is mostly dependent on international travel and population density.

Wait, what? Which two groups are you/we talking about? I was referring to the idiotic comparison between Madagascar and the United States...

Based on his posted image. Deaths as a percentage of cases.

U.S. Death Rate 1950-2021
https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/USA/united-states/death-rate

NOTE: All 2020 and later data are UN projections and DO NOT include any impacts of the COVID-19 virus.
(they wont add that to the numbers because it would show what a joke it is.)

Oh. The case fatality rate is of course an even more bogus statistic to argue with since it, on top of all the things mentioned previously, also depends on the quality of a nation's healthcare system and on the amount of testing it carries out.
If you do almost no testing and only test those who arrive at the hospitals half-dead, the CFR will obviously be skyhigh.
