We're catching up to Iran for number of cases.

Closing in on Germany too.

lol Not even close. The US has over four times the population of Iran. If you want to compare statistics, you need to multiply Iran's number of cases and deaths by four.

Nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnope. Again, the time factor is different. Iran's had it longer. So have Italy, China, Spain, France, South Korea and so forth. We reported more new cases in the last 24h than any country except Italy, and almost as many there.

You are mistaken. Iran reported its first confirmed case of covid19 on Feb. 20 and the US reported its first confirmed case on Jan 20 so the US has had it longer than Iran. The same is true of Italy. The reason the US is doing so much better than these other countries is that ten days after the first case was identified in the US, President Trump banned travel from China and other countries with high infection rates and to this day neither the EU nor Iran has taken such action.

How is that relevant to the fact that the US has over four times the population of Iran but similar infection numbers?

The mortality rate among confirmed cases in Iran is about 7% while the mortality rate among confirmed cases in the US is about 1.3%.

COVID-19: America, Scared Stupid

There has never been any doubt that should a national emergency occur, the less intelligent members of U.S. society would melt down. It’s happened with COVID-19.

The impeached president trump spent weeks vacillating on his administration’s response to the crisis, and when the news concerning the severity of the disease finally sunk in, the main body of the “herd” reacted by stampeding to retail outlets, especially Costco, to hoard paper towels and toilet paper. It appears in the beginning throes of their coronavirus hysteria, the common belief was, surrounding oneself with paper products is the best protection available.

Once store shelves had been stripped of all types of absorbent paper, hand sanitizer, and disinfectants (much of which found its way into city sewage systems causing countless overflows of raw sewage into neighborhood streets), the nationwide “herd” began hoarding foodstuffs. Some of the panic stricken “herd” members simply grabbed any groceries they saw, including perishable items (baked goods, produce, etc.) that spoiled before most could be eaten, so was a complete waste of money.

For those of us who remained calm and rational, grocery shopping, though somewhat less convenient for a week or so, has gone smoothly. Most stores have restocked, and have set limits on certain product purchases. Of course, this policy makes millions of the panicky “herd” members feel they’re being “cheated out of what is rightfully theirs”. After all, they got there first, so they must be permitted to buy as much as they want.

For those many millions of Americans who allowed themselves to be scared stupid, and then proceeded to buy a year or more supply of certain items, Costco, Wal-Mart, and other retailers are refusing to give refunds. You crazy people are stuck with it. You can sell it for pennies-on-the-dollar in garage sales or on CraigsList, or find space to store it. You bought it while in an irrational state, so there is no reason the stores should pay for your idiocy. Rational Americans applaud this policy.

Will these millions of people learn from their foolishness? History says no.

No dood --- YOUR numbers are wrong, provably so.

Iran:

8178 Cases which had an outcome:
6,745 (82%) Recovered / Discharged .............. 1,433 (18%) Deaths


=======================

US:

410 Cases which had an outcome:
147 (36%) Recovered / Discharged .............. 263 (64%) Deaths

64%, not "1.3%". You're off by a factor of FIFTY.

As we keep saying ..... OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER.... that Recovery number is fluid, needs time to establish, i.e. time for recoveries to take place. But right now it's 64% meaning that in 64% of all cases that had an outcome, that outcome was death.

And by the way we have now surpassed Iran for total cases. I'm sure your number was accurate when you posted it but that's how fast it's mounting.

The chart and the article are very misleading. The first confirmed case of covid19 was identified on Jan. 20 and it wasn't until Feb 21 that the first confirmed case was identified in Italy, so the US had already been dealing with covid19 for a month before the first case showed up in Italy. Second, if you want to compare the number of cases in Italy and the US, since the US has five times the population of Italy, you either have to divide the number of cases in the US by five or multiply the number of cases in Italy by five. If you do either, it is clear that the situation in Italy on what the chart calls day one was five times worse than in the US despite the fact the US had been dealing with the virus a month longer.

So why has Italy done so much worse than every other country on Earth? Clearly one reason is that while the US instituted a travel ban on China ten days after the first US case was identified, to date the EU still hasn't taken such action.

If you do that you're counting still-active cases as all "Recoveries", which you have no way to know. That's in the FUTURE.

We have at the moment 19,229 active cases, the resolution of which cannot be known until they resolve. Iran has 11,466.

Actually, no. The mortality rate is defined as the percentage of deaths to the number of infections. Unfortunately, with only about 71,000 people tested, we have no idea the actual number of infections in which to base any credible mortality figure.
