Per capita, of the 20 most affected nations, we're 4th in mortality, behind UK, Peru, and Chile. If you broaden it to include all nations, we're 8th (Italy, Spain, Belgium, and Sweden would be ahead of us).

Bmore gave the numbers, now you want more?

But you ARE right about one thing SSF:  We don't know the real numbers from other countries.  You just didn't take it far enough.  I find it interesting that your didn't include  the US in that statement.  Florida fudged numbers.  The Trump administration the CDC from getting or giving us virus data.  From an administration that lies about almost everything every day can't be trusted whether it is China or the US.
