I’m not sure making a per-capita comparison makes sense in the early stages of an epidemic.

Disease spread is too complex for either total-number or per-capita comparisons to capture it well, but total numbers are even more misleading.

I don't think we're in the early stages anymore, though. A significant fraction of the population has been infected.

I disagree. It's unreasonable to doubt that at this point.
