Link???

Got this and trump made US #1 !!!

As of 03:52 UTC on 20 April 2020, a total of 2,404,249 cases are confirmed in more than 180 countries

I don't see deaths per million population on your chart, only total deaths. Impact on population has to be deaths per million, not total deaths.

Here is the link:
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/?utm_campaign=homeAdUOA?Si

You can click the column headings to sort.
Scroll down to the country list.
*Sort by deaths per 1m pop.

You can also click USA and get a breakdown by state.

Problem is, does anyone really believe what Russia, China and Iran are reporting? Or how about North Korea, with 0 reported cases.

You can always find what you want to support what you think on the web....

Crazy world.

We can only work with the information that out there. Of the other countries are under reporting then it makes our numbers look worse.
I searched for "covid-19 deaths per million by country" this is what came up.

Do your own search for the same information. I picked the first site. I didn't go through them looking for one that makes my point.
Do it for yourself before you accuse me of searching for a site to support what I think. Fact check me before you pontificate.
I gain nothing from posting fudged info. If I find out I posted information that is incorrect or I'm wrong I acknowledge it and own it. I think Zollner knows that.

Willie I believe elg is strengthening your point rather than pontificating.

What he said about the reporting would strengthen my point if other countries are under reporting. It doesn't matter though, I have to use the data that is reported.

It's this statement referring to:

How would you interpret this reply after posting some information?

[Next Best Thing]

I think elg is saying this in general as opposed to identifying what you posted as an example.

Going by this logic trump should be reporting testing per million population/per capita instead of just "how many".
But reporting it accurately shows the US is last.

I'm not making that argument.

[Willie Wanker]

The point I'm making is that using the number deaths per country to compare counties is not fair because populations vary greatly. percentage of dead to total population is a better comparison. It shouldn't be a controversial point.

I realize that. I was just responding to this statement: "Impact on population has to be deaths per million, not total deaths".



My point is this: report tests per million, not total tests.

That makes sense. I agree. When the media starts reporting and addressing their question as deaths per million or percentage of deaths, then he should answer accordingly. The media isn't doing that.
The media uses total deaths to compare to other countries.

Willie, NBT is right....no slight intended at you.

The media will do everything to spin things the way they want.... that's one reason to watch the daily Trump show.... he calls 'em out....

Those "correspondents" are way more interested in asking "gotcha" questions than they are in any kind of truth....
