HERE is a link to World Meter Chart...Guess who is Number 1 on the chart? (MOST DEATHS?)

...BE SURE TO SCROOL DOWN TO SEE ENTIRE CHART WITH NUMBER OF CASES & DEATHS

...CASES BY COUNTRY is the correct place to look


search for .....Deaths due to Crona Virus...PLEASE, PLEASE...GIVE IT TIME TO LOAD UP...yes, it takes a while

1. Click the sort...

Sort by deaths per 1M or Total cases per 1M by clicking on the appropriate column. We are nowhere near number one. Still tragic how many cases and deaths could have been avoided.

4. Add to that the fact that China and others are underreporting deaths.

Probably massively, in the case of China.

6. That page also gives the estimate (by The Economist) of excess deaths

which doesn't depend on Covid reporting (though countries' death statistics vary in comprehensiveness and timeliness too). That doesn't shows China that big - they did, after all, have extreme lockdowns at times. If you click on the 'table' tab, you can sort by Central estimate - absolute change, Mar 2020-Apr 2022, and you get as the highest:
India: 5.88 million
Russia: 1.26 million
USA: 1.19 million
Indonesia: 0.89 million
Pakistan: 0.87 million
Brazil: 0.82 million
Mexico: 0.73 million
Bangladesh: 0.55 million
China: 0.43 million

The uncertainties for India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh and China are very wide.

2. We're one of the biggest countries, so that's not surprising.

3. I have changed the link to world link...It is correct now!

7. No, it is 20th, out of all world countries

https://ourworldindata.org/explorers/coronavirus-data-explorer?tab=table&zoomToSelection=true&time=2020-03-01..latest&facet=none&pickerSort=desc&pickerMetric=new_cases_per_million&Metric=Confirmed+deaths&Interval=Cumulative&Relative+to+Population=true&Color+by+test+positivity=false&country=IND~USA~GBR~CAN~DEU~JPN (sort on "absolute change" )

Per million, 2980 deaths from Covid. The only country in the world with more than twice that is Peru (6378). Several Eastern European countries are worse than the USA, and Brazil and Chile. And the tiny Gibraltar and San Marino.

8. Yes, if you look at all of the charts, you will see we are not the worst increasing number...

We may have the most deaths,...but looking at more charts, you will see that the numbers are..decreasing in
the United States..and that is very good

It means many people are taking the kind of precautions necessary to protect themselves.
I take precautions always...Why?

........... I have had pneumonia and it is awful. Very, VERY, VERY AWFUL!!! it
almost killed me. I don't want that again.. I always wear a mask in any kind of crowds..even in the food store, or
at any store or place where other people are. Yes.....ANY PLACE!!
