I'm going to use this thread to talk about the US.

If the US were a continent, and states were countries, their numbers look comparable to Europe.

New York State
pop. 19.5m
confirmed cases 222,284
deaths 14,636

California
pop. 39.5m
confirmed cases 27,528
deaths 985

Texas
pop.27.7m
confirmed cases 14,624
deaths 318

Florida
pop. 19m
confirmed cases 22,897
deaths 633

USA
pop. 328.2m
confirmed cases 826,282
deaths 37,054

EUROPE
pop. 741.4m
confirmed cases 988,295
deaths 95,247

Why is the death rate in Europe so much higher than the US? The US clearly has a high case count given it has half the population of Europe, but it's death rate is nearly a third lower.
