In every country but EXCEPTIONAL AMERICA health care is NOT a partisan political issue. Why is that?

In every other country health care is considered to be a HUMAN RIGHT. I know! SHOCKING isn't it?

So why do EXCEPTIONAL Americans insist on the partisan view of saving peoples lives? WHY IS LIFE VALUED SO LITTLE IN EXCEPTIONAL AMERICA? Are they a subspecies of homo sap that isn't so much sap as it is homo? Homophobe homoimmigreant homo "other" homo fair homo caring homo justice homo truth? No thing sapient or savvy or smart or intelligent about them. Uniformly all are dumbheads who subscribe to the view that health care is only for those who can afford it and NO ONE IS ENTITLED TO IT. Unless they are very wealthy of course. Rules changes the richer you are. A question there somethere..

How can an EXCEPTIONAL AMERICA be led by dumbheads? Anyone?

    And our death rate is doing much better than the majority of those countries as well.

    Ahem... that's kinda not what the figures show.. unless you mean that of those infected more recover? But even so, the death rate worldwide shows America way, way out in front in terms of numbers of deaths..

    It is exactly what the figures show. We have a lower death rate.  By the raw numbers and by population. 

    Worldometers.com 5/2/2020

    As you can see per pop US is only 204 deaths with next being Spain, Italy, UK, France in number of raw cases but all of them are more than double per pop death rate. 
    Death rate of resolved cases
    USA = 28%...(This will drop as our 98+% of mild cases recovers) 
    Spain..14%
    Italy..26%
    UK..98.79% (UK is not counting recovered well at all)
    France..33%
    Germany 4.2%
    Canada 13%

    Death rate assumeing all serious cases result in death
    USA..7.23%
    Spain..11.19%
    UK..16.29%
    France..16.98%
    Germany..5.41%
    Canada..7.27%

    USA has a better death rate as shown by the numbers. Than most countries we are told to look to when it comes to gov healthcare.

    You are TOLD to look to certain figures?????? Really???? Oh!!!!!  

    SO manipulating the figures to emphasise the positive now?? Oh! that's ok then!!!!

    UK haven't fared well, we are a very densely populated country, far too densely populated imo, but we DO add care home and community deaths into the figs.. that's important.. raw data is great but important to take the complete picture not just pick and choose which figs we take note of.. 

    Important too to remember that these numbers represent people!!! Not numbers, someone's grandmother, grandfather, uncle, sister, brother, daughter. son! 

    As Boris Johnson says.. this is humanity against the virus.. no place for sitting around watching Rome burn while congratulating ourselves on buying a nice new fiddle!

    I am not TOLD to look at anything.  I choose to look at the figures.  I use worldometers because they give more info on one site than any I have found.  I have been looking at them daily for more than a month now.  

    No figures were manipulated.  These are the numbers as reported by the different countries/states/etc.   

    I know they are people.  I look at the numbers because I have a distrust of the media who love to make things bigger than they are. And this way I can verify if what the media is reporting is an exaggeration or not.

    Imagine if Europe was one country, and all of its current countries were states, confirmed cases would be over 1.3 million. That's kind of what it's like in the US, it's a huge area, a larger area than Europe. Yes, NY and NJ is horrendous, but it isn't as bad as it looks when you break it down from state-to-state.

    I can only imagine that America feels that people are disposable and replaceable?
