Indeed. The US still has a growth-rate of COVID-19 that is almost as bad as it was at the peak. All western nations have managed to bring that rate down massively and even the Brits are slowly getting there. The US seems to want to avoid a second wave by not stopping the first one.
You do realize the Covid-19 numbers in the US are way over inflated. If you are in hospice and dying in 2 weeks but catch Covid-19 then US States have been counting you as a Covid-19 death instead of your original hospice reason. You have cancer and get Covid-19 and die from cancer, yep you are counted as Covid-19 death even though it was cancer that killed you. Get in a car wreck in Illinois and die with Covid-19, yep you are counted as a Covid-19 death even though it wasn't what killed you. Anyone remember the US CDC said in November and December that this was the worst year for Influenza A & B deaths? Interesting how CDC still has not released any Influenza death rates since. Yep you guessed it those are being thrown in to the Covid-19 deaths. Only Colorado has started to restate their numbers to try and accurately reflect the real totals. Other states are supposedly looking to do the same but haven't done so yet.
