I'm no COVID expert, but this on March 8th can't have been a good thing.

Meanwhile the US has declined in deaths over the last TWO days

Spain has not been in a good place for some time. Way before the virus.

It’s because of the belt and road initiative China started a few years ago. Many of these countries getting hit hard by this are apart of this initiative and have lots of labor from China and other things

What is amazing to Scruffy is that these countries, which have populations significantly smaller than the US, are seeing death tolls significantly higher than we are.
What factor is at play here?
Maybe socialized medicine is even worse than we thought.

I know a recent LSU graduate who's spending a year teaching English over there. Based on her instagram, she and her friends give zero fricks. Lots of pics at bars and tourist attractions, including trips to other European countries in the recent past.

We have 40 new deaths since yesterday. Total is 347
Cases are up to 27,004
Recoverd is 176
Seeing as though we can't get proper testing, and the president wants to "keep the numbers down"
The number of COVID-19 cases in the US are probably 70k right now. Maybe even 100k.

65% of the numbers are pulled out of the arse 88% of the time.

Two words: European Union.
Why do you think Boris and Nigel worked day and night to get the UK out of it?

The good news is that the Covid strains in Spain are mainly on the plains.

This is probably the only bit about the virus that gives me any kind of worry.
My sister and her husband have been in Spain the past five years. He’s in/was in the air force. They were getting moved back to the states in April. He’s been medically discharged for MS. Because of this virus shite, his dates for processing have been pushed back indefinitely.
Because of his MS, my sister has had him and the kids on lockdown for the past three weeks.

More densely populated, more elderly and more smokers.
Spain has an excellent healthcare system. I've experienced it firsthand. Honestly far superior to ours and it's not even close really.
