We're Doomed

Why are we "leaving the rest of the world behind"

Rachel had one plot, towards the end of the segment I linked above, that made this point graphically clear. It's a 5 minute segment and I didn't see a way to put a time stamp on that link so maybe a walk through that Oxford site is easier..

Try look at:

Are countries bending the curve?

https://ourworldindata.org/coronavirus#a...-the-curve

New confirmed cases in different countries..

https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/covid...100th-case

The death rates in different countries..

https://ourworldindata.org/coronavirus#a...-countries

I could go on, all of these are from that Oxford University site, and in each we see the USA is trending so far to the bad..

And of course, I'd be happy to see this all in a few weeks and realize my interpretation of those USA lines that are leaving the charts was only a momentary lapse in reason, rather than suggestive of our covid-19 response being literally off the charts. Any help you'd like to render in that regard would be gratefully appreciated.
