@ManlnTheHoody
If ur asking why the COVID-19 rate is so low in germany and high in your country. its because their president used to be a quantum chemist and our president used to be a reality television host

(15,265 posts)We have. 401,166 cases, Germany has 109,329.
Germany has ~80.6 million people. The U.S. has ~326.6 million people. So we have 4x the number of people. Per capita Germany has more cases then we do.

Population ~87 million
Cases 107k
US:
Population ~300 million
Cases 410k
At least officially, they are not that far behind the U.S. What I did notice is their death rate is significantly lower than ours. Im assuming this is because they are testing much more of the population, and in reality our total reported cases are much lower than actual. So yeah, this meme does seem to hold true. That is not good news for us, being run by a pack of science denying imbeciles.😤
