I watch 2 sites for stats, the first because it shows the rankings of countries and the second because it shows additional information by Provinces and States. I'm struck by the fact that the US is still number one on the list and has been for months where we dropped from 11th place (from when I found out about the site) to 19th. Your daily deaths are 600 to 800 where ours are 4 to 20. Considering you have over 9 times our population your loss of life is staggering to me. If it was a war your military was fighting you would all be screaming that something be done to end it. Yet it appears you are coming to accept it as a new normal.
Our country has handled a lot badly (care homes especially) but we seem to be learning from it. Things would have been a lot better if we acted sooner and it took Trudeau's wife having symptoms after returning from England to take thing seriously or things would have been even worse here. At least our leaders aren't in denial about it anymore.
I wear a mask when I have to go out and gloves or carry hand sanitizer. Lots of the public does but it would be better if everyone did.
First site. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ Click on the "Yesterday" and "2 Days Ago" at the top of the chart to see complete data as the "Now" data is constantly changing.
Second site. https://ncov2019.live/?fbclid=IwAR3mv7gekn4v5s1SA6dxfCK2RCzncZZOA7_1hd9pwpTuS6Q8PuOCPFDBb-I Click on the "Survival Rate Calculator" in the black bar along the top to see how you would fair if you got it.
I really hope it gets better again quickly but my pessimistic side knows it is going to take a long while.
Stay safe.
