They are going to vote for Trump. They are the same ones that say, look I got $1200 from Trump.

9. Are we 40th at per capita testing?

Used worldofmeters, sorted by tests per 1M and counted manually. Btw we’re at 22960 and Germany is at 30400

New Zealand is at 32K

What this number doesn’t capture is how effective contact tracing is. That seems to me to be as important as doint the tests.

Edit: the numbers don’t work. What am i doing wrong. If I take 350M people by 7M test we should be at 50K tests per million. That’s more than double what worldofdata says.
