are you really going to take CPP numbers as fact? and even right now they still locking cities down in authoritarian ways that is killing people.... their approach has not worked... they are still living in lock downs who knows what the real numbers will be

never said USA did well during pandemic... i mean didn't like 380,000 die just because they lacked health care in the USA? couldn't that also be a factor?
