"United States is handling the coronavirus on a per capita basis better than any major country in the world."

• The travel ban on China has a lot to do with it.
• Other nations are closer to China. So arriving out of Italy and Iran than we did.
• The US is large and more spread ouhad more cases earlier than we did. They also had more casest than many nations. It will take some time to reach the rural areas. However it is already seeded in all 50 states.
• The US is still playing catch up in testing.

  The surgeon general said this morning that we are 2 weeks behind Italy. I think maybe 3 weeks A two or three week delay relative to other nations is still a godsend, but don't think we're out of the woods, just because we got it a little later than they did.
