given the crowded conditions, the staggering poverty, and the lack of infrastructure to cope with a large outbreak. I knew it would be bad here because of a de facto lack of an executive branch to coordinate resources and the colossal mess our health care delivery system has become so rich men can get richer. But we are in great shape compared to India.

BBC has good reporting on this. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/us is also a decent source, although they appear to be downplaying it a bit for obvious reasons.
