Shouldn't the ratio be deaths per cases, not deaths per population? Still a disparity. -- nm - Max Jul 12, 14:56
Trumpers desperately use that number to defend Trump. Push back when they do. -- nm* - loosilu Jul 12, 13:54
From what I understand it’s more about what was learned in the early days that allow for better outcomes now. -- nm - spamlet Jul 12, 13:35 1
