Because our numbers are misreported upward, and others report them down...both because of

incentivization, but in opposite directions.

No knowledgeable person would argue that China and Russia are not accurately reporting their numbers. They are incentivized to do so in order to not be hurt in both reputation and trade. This is true for other countries also.

The US on the other hand has a medical system that gets paid 20% more for any diagnosis tied to corona virus. It has a nonspecific billing code giving the corona virus diagnosis without having to prove with a + test and a billing site done offsite by biller/coders reading EMR’s who are taught to look to maximize their “billing opportunities” in order to keep their jobs.
The US also has a large contingent of radical left wing RESIST’ers who falsify data (take the clinics in Florida that we’re reporting 100% + case results). Just a few of those instances really skews the numbers, and there are more than a few.

We also have been one of the targets of China for this.

You seriously have to stop being so dense as to think that the virus is doing something different here in the US than it is elsewhere. Your delusion is encouraged by the tempting possibility of blaming Trump’s leadership for the problem as well as your natural loathing of the US itself that most liberals possess.

Trumps shut down of travel from China against the Dems and Biden’s objections in the early weeks of this event was THE single biggest move to help our country that has been accomplished to date. His roll out of vents now populate not just our hospitals, but the entire world. His elimination of unnecessary regulations allowed remsdesivir to market months ago, and multiple promising vaccines are moving through development and study at never before seen speed.

You really are a partisan covering himself in the shroud of smugness. Your knowledge comes from what the msm feeds you, Nothing more.
