To be fair, the number ought to be a percentage of the population, making it possible to compare nations of different sizes. And then, to continue being fair, the deaths that he’s clearly responsible for would be the difference in the rate for the US and the average rates of a half dozen well-performing nations, multiplied by the population. In fact, the US has the 8th worst rate of covid deaths per 100,000 population, among nations with at least 50K covid cases: Nearly 48 (as of August 5). I’m feeling too tired to get it right, so if you’re interested in doing the math, please take over.
