COVID death rates per country

from https://www.statista.com/statistics/1104709/coronavirus-deaths-worldwide-per-million-inhabitants/

(there is info (below the table) at this URL that explains why these
figures can be very misleading - however - my hunch is that both New
Zealand and Taiwan really do have very low rates of COVID deaths)

deaths per million people

15 worst

Belgium 1,827

Slovenia 1,651

UK 1,540

Czechia 1,494

Italy 1,449

Bosnia 1,411

North Macedonia 1,350

USA 1,313

Bulgaria 1,286

Moldova 1,284

Hungary 1,258

Peru 1,238

Spain 1,227

Panama 1,223

Mexico 1,216

10 best (first world)

Norway 104

Japan 40

Australia 35

South Korea 27

Singapore 5

New Zealand 5

China 3

Thailand 1

Vietnam 0.3

---------------------

Taiwan .00000002 (7 deaths from 23 million people - not listed at this
url - unknown why - maybe is included in China total)

-----------------------

USA death rate is 4,314,142,858 times higher than Taiwan (thats 4
billion - by my calculations - which I might have screwed up)

USA death rate is 437 times higher than China

USA death rate is 262 times higher than New Zealand

USA death rate is 48 times higher than South Korea

USA death rate is 32 times higher than Japan

--------------------------

Is the USA news media mentioning this at all?

  1. I did screw up the Taiwan numbers vs usa - I think - not sure how I got it wrong

    ------------------

    worldometers.info/coronavirus/

    USA 1,357 deaths per million

    Taiwan .3 deaths per million (Vietnam also)

    1357/.3=4523

    so the USA death rate is 4,523 times higher than Taiwan and Vietnam
