You cant do flat comparisons, it's just a non sense. However i could argue on density.
The only thing we can do yet is to compare how fast the pandemic got stopped by containment.
Game over.



In june we are supposed to announce and add the deaths at home (yet estimated to 9k but it's uncertain)


NYC and CA are pretty dense, people from there also pretty dense BTW.

Anyway you can moan about the US' handling of the crisis all you want but in the end the deciding factor will be if there's a vaccine or not. If not, all of us will get it anyways. Eventually ;)

I like logical consistency. You can't tell me that corona wave 2.0 will be really bad so we need to stay home one day and then 24 hours later as people are protesting you have nothing to say on congregations of people that are hundred fold in context of virus spread.


I mean, it probably WILL spread due to the protests and arrests. This is just more pressing now because people care about it more. That's really all it boils down to.

It does matter whether there's 150k deaths of 500k by the time a vaccine becomes available.



And the comparison with France is misleading since the United States and France are at very different points of the pandemic.

The U.S. have about 5 times the population of France.
Numbers for daily cases in the U.S. are currently between 20 and 25 thousand, while they are around 300-500 in France, which differs by a factor of around 50, meaning that daily cases per capita are about 10 times higher for the U.S. compared with France.
Similarly, the U.S. currently have around 1115k active infections while France has around 53k. In other words: it is already a forgone conclusion that the per capita (!) deaths in the U.S. will soon overtake those in France.

And just for the record: France has had quite bad numbers compared with many other parts of Europe; and the handling of the pandemic by the French government was very dubious and lacking.

let me translate for you:

demonstrations by conservatives and libertarians during which no one was killed or seriously injured = bad, will lead to second wave of coronavirus.
demonstrations by liberals during which large-scale looting and arson took place and which saw several people killed and many more injured by protesters = good, might lead to more coronavirus cases, but now that it's a liberal cause the protesters are fighting for (instead of something trivial and inherently right-wing like earning money and feeding one's family), these concerns dont matter anymore according to the very "experts and scientists" whose opinion should always determine our behavior (according to liberals).

Let me help it for you: Racism in US makes so much bad stuff (and probably deads) that the protest worth it over corona risk.

Regard, 1200 health professionals.

LOL.
