This is a more direct link.

Here’s a screenshot showing the United States is 27th in the number of tests per million people, below Belarus, Belgium, Britain, Bermuda and Bahrain — and that’s just the Bs.

Here’s a screenshot showing that the US is ninth in the world for deaths per million population — but that the epidemic is over in the rest of the top dozen, which got hit badly, early, and is just getting started in the US:

Note that the top ten mortality countries excluding the US put together have almost as much population as the US — which has twenty-five times as many new cases as all of them put together.

Even if your statement was true(which it isn’t), it is ignoring the fact that the US has tested the most in general

This statement is also false. China has administered 90 million tests, the United States 33 million.

I’m amazed at the confidence and ability to gaslight some people can have when they are fear mongering and lying on a daily basis.

Well, Erwin Blackthorn, considering every statement you make is provably false, I think you’re projecting here.

Before we go, can you give your prediction as to how many Americans will end up dying of COVID-19 during this year? It doesn’t have to be accurate, just a guess like, “under 150,000” or “over a million”.
