PJM:
Last month, the media jumped on the news that the United States had more confirmed cases of the coronavirus than any other nation. That was bogus on two fronts. First, U.S. intelligence agencies believe that China is lying about its true numbers, and reports from inside the country tell of crematoriums working around the clock and people being paid off to keep quiet.
Second, the United States does not lead the world in coronavirus cases per capita—which is the best way to compare how the pandemic is being contained in each country. For much of the pandemic, Italy has been overwhelmed by the coronavirus, but Italy has fewer cases and deaths than the United States. The United States has nearly six times the population of Italy, and when you measure cases and deaths per capita it’s easy to see why Italy was overwhelmed and the United States is not.
Here are the top six countries by confirmed cases (based on the case numbers from the Center for Systems Science and Engineering at Johns Hopkins University as of 9:00 am ET April 12) in descending order (excluding China because their numbers are bogus): more here
Yes, but Orange Man bad. Don’t you understand that?
All these assholes seem to have forgotten that word Per Capita.
Bad Brad,
Forgotten? No. Purposely left out of the equation? Yes.
Pretty sad, the lame stream media is actively rooting for a contagious disease. As far as I’m concerned, they all need high speed lead poisoning.
I dont watch TV at all, but the Youtube homepage is ejaculating with “news” clips proclaiming the 20,000 deaths number they are pushing today!!!
“Yes, but Orange Man bad. Don’t you understand that?”
You might expand that to include “Constitution bad” as well.
Along with several other major things.
This whole thing is much, much greater in scope than the lower end party politics you see displayed being used to distract you from seeing the bigger picture.
Don’t mention that “per capita” to the media or leftists.
They are having too much fun trying out tyranny.
Per capita….seems everybody knows about it but the dummies in the media. Most ignorant generation of “journalists” ever.
Follow a website called 9gag.com: you’ll see how ignorant young people are and how paid trolls work.
