>And pardon me for saying this, but part of me is ever so slightly disappointed Covid-19 is not a lot more deadly. I am a terrible person.

I suspect that if it was a lot more deadly, it would have triggered a stronger government response (at least in the U.S.) and ultimately killed fewer people.

Then again, I've repeatedly underestimated just how incompetent this administration could be.

To the extent that the US administration (slightly worse than France) is incompetent, the British, Belgian, Italian, Spanish, Peruvian, Swedish and Chilean administrations are all worse and some significantly so if you look at deaths per 100,000. Brazil has lower per capita deaths than the US.
