This is an example of why you can’t predict the infection/death rate in the U.S by looking at other countries. Countries have different cultural and hygiene practices.
Right now Spain has 28,600 confirmed cases and 1756 deaths. The U.S has more confirmed cases but only has 349 deaths.
Breh, look how it ramps up. Spain's first death was March 4. By March 10 they'd still only had 34 deaths total. March 13th they had 47 deaths in one day to bring it up to 131. Next three days were 98, 48, and then bam 191. Now they up to 350 in one day just a week after breaking 50 for the first time.
Other than that one nursing home where like 35 people died, the USA got hit later. As of March 14th we'd only been at 57 deaths total. The next three days it started ramping up....11.....18....23.....then 40-60 for four straight days. And then yesterday we had 94 deaths in a single day and I don't know if they done counting yet.
We haven't even hit our bad stretch yet, where the hospitals start getting overwhelmed and we run out of respirators and people start dying of shyt that you shouldn't even die from. That's when the death rates get ugly.
