The United States: one fourth of the coronavirus deaths in the world; one twentieth of the world population

The New York Times reported today that there have been close to 50,000 reported deaths in the U.S. caused by the coronavirus, which represents one fourth of those world-wide. The U.S. population of 328 million is less than one twentieth of the world population estimated at 7.6 billion. The U.S. is the wealthiest most powerful nation in the world.  Isn’t this cause for reflection, analysis and change?
