Belgium, Slovenia, Bosnia-Herzegovenia, Italy, Spain, the UK, Czechia, and Bulgaria now all have deaths-per-million rates higher than the US. The early shut downs of Europe seem to have not had a lasting effect, which leaves "herd immunity" through natural exposures and man-unfactured vaccinations as the only real "fixes"
(Only Luxembourg and Czechia have cases-per-million rates higher than the US, and Lux is too small to statstically matter in comparison tolarger populations).
But still - why the rate increases? The new strain? Has it been around long enough to change the mortality rates?
State-to-state changes, but here the trend has never varied:
Folks over 70 account for 12% of cases, but 75% of the deaths.
Folds over 60 account 23% of case and 92% of deaths.
We still have only 3 deaths under age 30 - out of 83,581 cases.
People 20-29 have the largest number of cases (47, 364) but only 1 death.
1.16% of all cases here have required an ICU bed.
