When you say the number of cases per million, do you mean the statistic that has more than doubled in the last two days from 2 to 5?
Also, I checked out Norway's numbers. Not only are their cases per million lower than ours, they've already significantly flattened the curved. We've had a mortality rate of about 1.5%, Norway just about 0.5%. If they're getting hammered, doesn't that mean we are, too? Am I missing something here?
Either way, I don't see how you can call this good news.

I guess GranSportGTO was already taken.

I'm sorry, I was looking at the death rate. The death rate in the US went from 2 to 5 per million in the last two days. Norway still has a death rate of only 4 per million. But I don't see how you can call the numbers in the US good news, especially when compared with China, South Korea, and Japan.
I do see how.
But then I'm a statistician, so...
But I don't mean to downplay our US situation. As things currently stand, the second derivative of the infection total curve is still positive. It's not until the FIRST derivative of the infection curve is approaching zero that the curve can be considered "flattened" as all the laymen and clueless media idiots keep talking about. We are a long way from that point...

Simple, I'm alive and well, the power washer worked, I cut a fraction of the grass and I'm the center of the universe.
The world adores me.

While you want to blame Trump exclusively for this perhaps you should consider this....
A lot of people may have dropped the ball, but if there is blood on anyone's hands, it is not exclusive. It is far reaching and on both parties. Perhaps if they were not trying to destroy each other, they might have worked together the way a real government should. The two party system is now a detriment to the American way. The sooner the democratic party and republican party are destroyed, the better.

We get it: you hate America and despise her people.
Question: why don't you take your unhappy ass somewhere else?
You can’t read.....obviously.

2/million, 4/million, 5/million; basically identical and basically insignificant.
