      Compared to smaller populations, sure.  That's expected.  It's not perfect. Far from it.  But it's getting there.

      @Redux If only our population size were the actual problem...

      I guess it all depends upon what percentage of our population gets infected.  And how quickly it happens.  But even in the rosiest of scenarios I'm thinking estimates under 50k are low.  I'll be surprised if fewer than 250,000 die from Covid-019.  Death rates are running somewhere around 0.5%.   Maybe higher.  If one sixth of the U.S. population gets infected that'd be 250k deaths.  I guess it could be fewer if the virus is slowed to the point where we're able to treat the weakest ones who are most vulnerable to the virus' symptoms.
